ICF International Family Conferences
Some of the International Conference DelegatesOur 2009 ICF Conference at Milwaukee proved a great success. The theme for this event was "Encourage One Another" and it certainly proved an encouraging time. The photo on the left shows just some of those who had gathered from around the world for this event which provide a time of enriching fellowship and informative and inspiring meetings, Many stated that this was the best ICF Conference ever, leaving appetites whetted for the next event which is scheduled to take place in Oxford, Uk in 2013.
Next Event is in London
The 2013 ICF Family Conference will be held at Brunel University in West London. The University has excellent modern facilities. It is handy to Heathrow Airport with good connections into the heart of London and to other parts of the country.
Now the planning committee are working on various other aspects and further details will be available later this year.
It is anticipated that Congregationalists in Britain will welcome visitors from overseas should anyone wish to extend their visit to the UK either before or after the Conference. This will add significant value to your attendance.
Why not visit the Conference facilities website at www.brunelconferenceservices.co.uk where you will find a virtual tour of the resources.

ICF Members stunned by death of Steve de Gruchy
On 23rd February news that Steve had been involved in a rafting accident in South Africa and that his body was missing was rapidly circulated around the Fellowship. On 24th February we learned that he was now formally presumed dead and that a funeral service would be held on Saturday afternoon 27th February. Steve's body was subsequently found in the Mool River by police divers. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Adding New Languages
The ICF News Sheet is now available in Spanish thanks to former members of the Congregational Church in Herstmonceux, England. It is hoped that the Latin America page of this website will go bi-lingual shortly, with news from the Region included.
We have hopes for translations of the News Sheet into Greek, Arabic and Korean before the end of the year!
