This year we’ve chosen to name our conference 'LEAD'.
While many of us excel at leading successful churches, our focus now shifts to how we lead ourselves as pastors.
Are we leading with integrity?
Are we considering longevity in our leadership?
Are we effectively guiding our families, prioritising health and ensuring endurance?
In the book of John (John 12:26), Jesus addresses His disciples, emphasizing both serving and following. Serving focuses on functionality, while following speaks to matters of the heart. Serving may be momentary however true longevity and vitality comes from whole heartedly following after Christ.
Our prayer is that you leave conference this year inspired, equipped and ready to LEAD in all areas of your life and ministry.
​
We can't wait to see you there!
Ps Matt & Franca Heins.

Conference Speakers
As we focus this year's conference on following the lead of Jesus, leading ourselves well and leading for longevity, we have invited some of our incredible 'homegrown' Australian church family to come and impart to us.
These people are leading well, leading with integrity and we see fruitfulness in their life and ministry. Some have grown up in the ACC pastoring, youth-pastoring, leading departments, growing strong and healthy churches and raising disciples of Jesus.
As each of these leaders share their story of ministry and their passion for God and His Church, we pray you will be challenged, inspired and stretched!

KIDS STREAM | Hosted by ACC Kids Victoria
Age 2 - Grade 6
State conference is not just a gathering for pastors and leaders, it’s also a time for your kids to have an encounter with God. We are believing that your kids will have a fresh encounter and be inspired to live the life that God has called them to live. Throughout conference we will be running two programs - early childhood and primary.
We have a whole bunch of activities organised for your kids. All primary kids will be going off-site to different excursions throughout the day. As well as praise and worship, preaching, games and so much more in the evenings. Our early childhood kids will be staying onsite, taking part in lots of fun activities.
​
YOUTH STREAM | Hosted by Youth Alive Victoria
Year 7 - Year 12
The youth stream for this years conference is set to be a great week! Teenagers will be hearing from high-caliber youth voices across both mornings of the conference, followed by some off-site excursions. Each night, the youth stream joins with the main conference, where we know God will speak to and inspire each teen. The Youth Alive team are looking forward to hosting your teenagers at this years conference!
