The Kairos Movement

For those hungry to live differently the Jesus Way

Autumn 2023

Golden Leaves We see signs of summer's passing in golden leaves, shortening days, misty mornings, autumn glow. We sense its passing in rain that dampens, winds that chill, Harvest's bounty placed on show. Creator God, who brings forth both green shoot and hoar frost, sunrise and sunset, we bring our thanks for seeds that have grown, harvests gathered, storehouses filled, mouths fed. And, as your good earth rests through winter's cold embrace, we look forward to its re-awakening when kissed by Spring's first touch.

Kairos Wednesdays

Kairos Wednesdays start this October.  We’ll meet Weekly during term-time, in homes across Yorkshire and the North East Region. 

With time to catch up with other groups via zoom at the start of our gatherings, we’re then offering a pattern of gatherings that we hope will be fun, with good conversation and ideas to stimulate.  We’ll aim to eat together once a month, and invite both external guests speakers, in-house bloggers to share with us.  We’ll have tasters of some of Kairos’ activities from creative evenings, to stilling and quiet and also ask our activists to update us and encourage us to action.

Hopefully there will be a group local to you, but if not then do join the zoom group, or maybe host a group in your locality.

Flourish

We believe the Way of Jesus offers us a vision and a path to flourishing as individuals, family and community. We dont just say that, we focus on it being a reality for us.

Belong

We in Kairos celebrate difference, and value what it brings to us as a community. Our movement is shaped by everyone it it, and we take the time, to get to know ourselves, so each can express who they are.

Gather

We gather physically and digitally, with a rhythm that works for us. Sometime for fun, sometimes to serve and worship. Sometimes small and intimate, other times open and welcoming of all.

Supporting Kairos

We would be incredibly grateful, for those who feel they could make a one off donation towards sustaining and developing the Kairos Movement, and even more so, if you feel you could offer us ongoing support through a small monthly standing order.

Making a difference in our world, serving, loving, challenging or lobbying, sharing faith or putting it into action – we gather around an interest or passion to make a positive difference.

Larger gatherings where we invite the public. These may be times of worship, social events, webinars or special interest discussion.

Our Outlook

Its not possible to capture our position in detail on every issue, but we share here some core beliefs and outlooks from which we build as a movement. We recognise that those who follow Jesus dont all share these views, but we ask those who engage with us, to respect these foundational values.
