WelCom August 2024
Life Teen Aotearoa is a faith-centred movement that works nationally with dioceses and parishes to lead teenagers and their families into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ and the Church.
Life Teen Aotearoa is partnering with the Archdiocese of Wellington to run a three-day, youth- leadership convention based at Sacred heart College, Lower Hutt, from 30 August to 1 September. It is open to people who are serving in youth ministry and working with young people. Registration is $120 per person.
The convention, the first held since 2019, is in response to renewal of youth ministries around Aotearoa. Following Covid-19, those working in youth ministry have seen the formation and renewal of many youth ministries throughout Aotearoa and the revival of some of the country’s largest youth events say the convention organisers. ‘There is a real growth and real need in the youth ministry space.’
The convention is open to all those serving young people from across New Zealand, including priests, youth ministers, DRSs, interested parents, or young people Year 13+ wanting to step into ministry.
The weekend will involve dynamic talks and training from Life Teen International staff, Divine Renovation, local youth ministry leaders and other special guests. There will be opportunities to discuss youth ministry, network, resources to put learnings into action, as well prayer and worship and faith renewal.
