Launch Camp is for students in Year 10-12 who have been encouraged by their home church to consider Christian leadership. It is an opportunity to hear from the Bible, be equipped in ministry skills and connect with peers from other churches who love Jesus and want to serve him.

Launch Camp is designed to be attended for three consecutive years with each year providing different areas of growth and training (see below.)

Attendees – Please discuss registering for Launch Camp with your church before submitting your registration.
