Youth Ministry Futures is a small outfit with a big vision.

We’re an independently funded offshoot of the Centre for Children’s and Youth Ministry, being lovingly nurtured within the legal structures of Ridley College.

Dream with us

Our vision is to reimagine and reshape local church youth ministry in Australia over the next 20 years.

Dream with us… What would it be like if we could shift the youth ministry system from part-time, short-term, untrained leaders, and instead create a community of leaders supported and released to serve as full-time, long-term, well-trained vocational youth ministers? That’s what we’re working toward, and most importantly, that’s what we’re praying for.

Pray with us

Our first major project is to call the Australian church to a month of prayer for youth ministry through November 2024.

We’re praying that the Spirit would be at work in local church youth ministries around Australia so that many young people would hear the good news of Jesus, turn to him in repentance and faith, and take their part in the ministry of the church and the mission of God.

We’d love you and your church to join us.
