New Word Alive
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
New Word Alive is an annual conference run by a partnership of the UK Christian organisations UCCF and Keswick Ministries. The conference is focussed on Bible teaching, corporate worship, and family time. Word Alive was an annual conference run by a partnership including Spring Harvest, from which it had originally been a spin-off, but Spring Harvest withdrew in 2007. UCCF and Keswick Ministries decided to take-on organising the conference which, as well as attracting around 4000 guests, has historically been the largest student conference in Europe.
