World-class Coaching and Prophetic Encouragement for Senior Leaders
After the buzz of the main GPA Conference (11-12th September) join Emma, David and special guests for two incredibly rewarding days of learning, worship, faith-building, and connection – uniquely crafted to bless all senior leaders and ministers within GPA’s network.
For the first time ever we are opening this event up to all senior church leaders, even if you have no previous connection to Global Prophetic Alliance! But hurry – spaces at this intimate event are limited.
In order to retain the privacy and intimacy of this event, the retreat is strictly limited to senior Christian leaders only (meaning pastors, church leaders, charity/non-profit directors, or senior business leaders). If you are unsure of your eligibility please contact Amanda Atkinson.
Â
Two Unmissable Days:
- Leadership coaching sessions with Karl Martin
- Prophetic leadership input from Emma Stark & Elijah Chanak
- Restorative and intimate worship led by Ali McFarlane and GPA Worship
- Inspring roundtable discussions with GPA's international family of Associate Ministers
- Connect with like-minded senior church, business, and mission leaders
- ...and a fun-filled ceilidh dance evening - a chance to let your hair down and party in Scottish style!
Draft Schedule (indicative only – final details and timings will vary):
Day One - Monday 14th
Day Two - Tuesday 15th

She is known for her vulnerability, honesty, and ability to communicate profound truths through worship. As a gifted songwriter, her songs, such as “Holy One of Israel,” “Jesus Christ is Lord,” and “Show Me Your Glory,” have been sung in multiple nations and languages.

GPA WORSHIP
GPA Worship, led by Ali McFarlane, is the worship movement birthed from the Global Prophetic Alliance HQ in Scotland. Our mission is to be the voice of God to the nations through song, sound, and movement. We hold ourselves to the highest standards of boldness, obedience, and truth-telling in worship. This is reflected in the original songs we have released, and in our training of the next generation of prophetic worshipers.
We believe that worshipers should be healed, theologically sound, and Spirit-led. Worshipers are not just musicians but prophetic vessels, and through the power of gathered worship, they have the authority to shift atmospheres and lead communities into God’s presence. One of our aims is to re-establish this high standard within worship leadership.
