Spark calls young adults to consecrate their entire lives to Jesus Christ.

StayKCC, Katoomba
28–30 August 2026

What is Spark?

Spark is a Christian conference for young adults (18–30ish) to help you know what your life is for. It’s here to keep shining the light of God’s word into your life: urging you to forsake the things that are trivial and dedicate your whole life to Jesus Christ and what He calls you to do with this life He’s given you. 

Across one full weekend away, we’ll gather to hear from God’s Word, worship together, ask big questions and encourage one another to dedicate our whole lives to Jesus Christ. There’ll also be time to reflect, rest, recharge and build community together!

Dedicating your whole life to Jesus Christ during a formative season

Young adulthood is a formative time of life: you’re finding your own way and making decisions that could steer the course of your life. And you’re doing that while the world is relentlessly selling you its dream of who and what you could and should become.

As  a Christian, to navigate that wisely, you need to be well-grounded in understanding what your life is for.  Because the truth is you only get one shot at life, and it’s the dressing room for all eternity. So how you use every hour, how you spend every day, how you invest every year, really matters.

Spark is here to help you know what your life is for. It’s here to keep shining the light of God’s word into your life: urging you to forsake the things that are trivial, and dedicate your whole life to Jesus Christ and what He calls you to do with this life He’s given you. There is no greater thing you can do with your life in this world than consecrate your life to the God who made you.

That’s what Spark is here to do, and we would love you to be part of it.

The Life We Were Made For

A Call to Consecrate Your Life to Christ

We live in a world that tells us to create our own meaning. But so often, chasing success, relationships, experiences, or approval leaves us feeling exhausted, confused, and still wanting more.

At Spark 2026, we’ll explore why our culture’s promises fall short and how the good news of Jesus redefines what a truly meaningful life looks like.

Together, we’ll consider how life can be deeply purposeful and secure, both now and forever, in Christ.
