MORE Leaders
Welcome!
We are so excited that you and your regional team are running a Weekend Youth Camp this year! From our research, we know camp ministry works. Young people often share how these experiences are formative, and the phrase "to see my friends and connect with God" summarises what we hear.
We pray that Weekend Youth Camps happen all over Australia as youth ministries join to impact their local region. A Weekend Youth Camp is an opportunity to get together with other youth ministries from your region, celebrate the good news and experience family and faith in a fun atmosphere.
What could a Weekend Youth Camp look like?
How it looks is entirely up to your regional team and what you believe is best for your young people. The primary purpose is to help young people experience a culture built upon the four factors leading to transformation:
WELLBEING - a place where young people are looked after.
FUN - a place where young people can express themselves.
FAMILY - a place young people can belong as they are.
FAITH - a place where young people hear that God loves them.
No matter what your Weekend Youth Camp looks like, make sure it is safe, fun, and a place to find belonging and create space to encounter Jesus.
Resources
To help with the running of your camp, the following is available:
- Access to funding to subsidise the cost of attending your camp of $75 per person, or 50% of the registration cost if less than $150.
