Transform Work: Spring Harvest Report
Welcome to this special After Spring Harvest newsletter, particularly to all our new subscribers.
Our prayer is that you will all be encouraged by what happened at Spring Harvest, and better equipped by the resources we highlight here to follow Christ in community to transform your workplaces.
The theme of 2026 Spring Harvest was based around the Greatest Commandment:
'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘Love your neighbour as yourself.’ Mark 12:30-31 (NIV)
And to do this by loving Up to God, Inwards to the Church and Outwards to our Communities.
Transform Work applied this commandment to our workplaces with seminars over 3 days led by Ros Loaker, Susie Hunt and Stephen Adams, covering:
-
The Abiding Life: Walking with God in our Work
-
City on a Hill: Building Christian Community at Work
-
From Presence to Proclamation: Bearing Fruit on the Frontline
Around 130 people attended at least one of these seminars, and it was thrilling to see them becoming more confident to be open about their faith and seek other believers in their workplaces. Many people left committing to start new Christian Workplace Groups (CWG) and connect into a Christian Professional Sector Group (CPSG). We are excited to see what God will be doing!

We also had a stand in the Exhibition Hall where Ros and Ali Loaker, Paul and Ems Mews, Dave Law and Julie Smith introduced people to the value of CWGs and church workplace ministry, and connected them with CPSGs. We also re-ran a Transform Work survey and look forward to sharing the results of that with you soon.

After Spring Harvest
Our approach at Transform Work is to walk closely and relationally so that everyone is equipped to live out their faith in their workplace. So we have provided these resources that will help Christians who were at Spring Harvest, and everyone else who receives this newsletter:
After Spring Harvest Online Meetings
These are specifically designed for anyone wishing to start - or has recently started - a Christian workplace group. They will be informal meetings where you can ask questions, get tips and pray together. Register and join either or both meetings here:
22nd April from 7.30pm (more information here)
18th May from 7.30pm (more information here)
Transformwork.net website
Our website has a huge range of resources to help you in your workplace. We recommend you start with these quick links:
Transformwork.net/StartAWorkplaceGroup an online booklet that guides you through all the stages, from finding other believers, to starting and growing a workplace group, through to engaging faithfully with your organisation to promote and celebrate the Christian community there.
Transformwork.net/FindYourWorkplace a listing of over 500 organisations with active Christian Workplace Groups. Find your organisation there and join the community, or add yourselves in if you’re currently missing.
Transformwork.net/MeetYourAmbassador our Ambassadors are the glue between Transform Work and you. They have all led or been part of CWGs and so can guide you, pray for you and answer your questions - or know someone else who can.
Transformwork.net/JoinAProfessionalSectorGroup consists of around 60 organisations committed to bringing together and supporting specific professions. These are ideal if you are in a small organisation or working in the public sector.
WhatsApp Communities
It was encouraging to have a WhatsApp group for people who came to Spring Harvest and joined our workplace seminars. We will be closing this soon, but we recommend you join some of our other WhatsApp communities, especially:
Community Connect - Transform Work: People regularly post testimonies and other encouragements here, and it’s a great place to learn from others and ask questions
TW Prayer: We have a daily prayer meeting for our workplaces which you can join from this group, and also share prayer and praise requests
After you have joined these WhatsApp groups, you can also see the other communities in the Transform Work network - do please join them as well.
Seminar Slides
Finally, some of you asked for the slides from our seminars. They can be accessed here:
The Abiding Life: Walking with God in our Work
City on a Hill: Building Christian Community at Work
From Presence to Proclamation: Bearing Fruit on the Frontline
We do hope that you find all of these resources helpful.
See you next month!
Kind Regards
The Transform Work Team |
