Investing in leaders today to strengthen the church tomorrow.

Baptist Youth & Young Adult Ministries is here to support, empower and equip youth and YA’s ministries within our Baptist churches across NSW and ACT. We’re all about connecting with pastors and leaders, building community networks, and creating opportunities for collaboration and growth through resourcing, training and shared experiences.

The NSW & ACT Baptist Association is a vibrant movement of over 360 churches, united by a common goal of becoming a movement of 1000 healthy churches by 2050. To achieve this mutual goal, we will passionately invest in seeing healthy and thriving youth and YA in our local churches.

Empowering youth and YA leaders today builds a strong foundation for tomorrow’s faith and leadership. This commitment strengthens not just individual ministries, but the entire Baptist movement, ensuring a vibrant and resilient future across NSW/ACT.

 

Impact YOUR discipleship journey

Take your next step with IMPACT Young Adults—a flexible discipleship pathway for 17–25s featuring mentoring, cohort learning, in‑person gatherings and cross‑cultural exposure in partnership with Baptist Mission Australia.

Your shared youth‑group experience

State Youth Camp (SYC) brings high‑schoolers from Baptist youth groups across NSW/ACT together for three nights of camping, activities, worship, prayer, teaching and connection—built so leaders can focus on discipleship.

Your Space to Connect

Connect 2026 is to connect people involved in kids, youth, families, young adults and SRE ministries to encourage, share stories and shape vision for our local contexts. 

Connect is about providing a space to gather with other churches and ministries in your local region, enabling you to partner and collaborate together so that everyone is equipped.  This is a leadership development opportunity that will help you grow personally and in your ministry skills.

Your Ministry Health Check

The Healthy Youth Ministry Framework is designed to help you improve the health of your youth ministry.

The primary goal of any youth ministry should be to present Jesus and encourage the young people in your care to follow him, and this framework can identify areas that may support you in that objective.
