In-Person - UCB Foundation 'On the Road' with Bishop Claion Grandison - London
@King's House 242 Pentonville Road London
Leadership can be incredibly rewarding, but as most leaders know, it can also come with many challenges. If you're a leader in business, church, or your local community, UCB’s Foundation events are for you. They're designed to be a ‘spiritual oasis’, a time spent in the presence of God away from the busyness.
Claion Grandison was elected in March 2022 to lead the New Testament Church of God and has since taken the denomination on a journey of change and transformation. At the heart of NTCG’s new direction is its vision; to be a Relevant, Relational Church, Reimagining God at work in our community and nation.
Bishop Claion’s passion for raising up leaders led to him starting the Mentor Leadership Programme in 2011 which has resulted in a number of its graduates becoming pastors. Today, through a number of initiatives, Bishop and NTCG continue to focus on emerging leaders, ensuring that its next cohort of ministers will be proficient and committed, delivering theologically sound leadership.
Since coming into post, he has appointed a number of younger men and women as local pastors, all of whom are doing very well in their churches. 
Bishop Claion is a graduate of Spurgeon’s College and guest lecturer in Evangelism within Black Pentecostal spaces. He is married to Sonia and they have two adult children
