Leadership
Young to old, we believe at clays that anyone can learn to be a leader, afterall we do leadership everyday of our lives. Be it parenthood, employment or leading someone to Jesus.
​
In January 2025 we launched our first GroundBreakers Course aimed at encouraging aspiring, new and seasoned leaders to hone their leadership skills.
​
​At Clays we want to champion those who are willing to step up into positions of servanthood. This course takes a year to complete and is open to those who are affiliated to Clays Community Church.
​
​WHY GroundBreakers?

If we are to see God's Kingdom grow then we will need leaders, and leaders are called to break new ground.​
