The Abbey is a national annual Anglican conference for youth leaders and young adults from across the motu to gather, pray, worship, learn and reimagine together.

This year’s theme is ‘Loving God, Loving Others’.

How do we share the love of God in a world that is hurting? For those we meet we get to be an expression of His love. As followers of Jesus we are living examples of being His hands and feet. How’s that going!??

This Abbey we will be exploring how to encounter God and walk with Him in a way that means His love overflows from us into the world crying out around us.

Join us as we hear from some amazing speakers, choose from a line up of insightful workshops and connect with others doing the mahi from around the motu.

The Abbey is for:

• Youth Leaders, Church Leaders, and their whanau (The Abbey is for anyone in your congregation that is interested in youth ministry. We also invite their whānau to attend. There will be a children’s programme during keynoate and worship sessions);
• Young Adults (18-35yo – If you are a young adult and not involved in youth ministry we still have heaps of workshops for you on offer. As well as opportunities to connect with other young adults from around the motu); and
• Junior Leaders (16+yo – Up and coming youth leaders, children’s church leaders, worship band members, holiday programme leaders, tech crew, future church leaders, school leavers… we want you!).
