The 2008 Theology of Youth Ministry Conference from July 31st - Aug 1st was our biggest and best yet! Youthworks College hosted almost 100 attendees and expert speakers from Sydney, interstate and overseas for two days of theological reflection on connecting with the youth of today.

The conference involved speakers presenting their papers, a prepared response given to the paper and then discussion amongst table groups and question time.

The conference's theme was 'Connecting the Unconnected': Thinking Strategically about Missional Engagement with Youth.
