Student Conference 2026
2026-01-22 09:00 - 2026-01-23 17:00 (Australia/Melbourne) | 4 Haig Rd Mount Evelyn, 4 Haig Rd, Mount Everlyn, Victoria, 3796, Australia
“And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God.” Ephesians 3:19
How well do you know God?
Do you just know about Him?
Have others told you how they know God?
Does God know you, deeply and intimately?
Journey 45.7 is the average length in centimetres from our brains to our hearts. So often we have all these facts about God that we know in our minds, but they often stay there; not really forming a basis of a relationship with God, impacting our lives, or changing our behaviours. During our two days together we hope that the Lord will take truths about Himself from just a head knowledge to a personal ‘heart’ knowledge. That each one of us may be ‘filled with all the fullness of God.” and experience eternal life which is ” that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.”
Join us at the ATI Student Conference 2026 to draw deeper into a relational knowledge of God that is deeper than any other relationship you could ever have.
Details:
Time – 9:00am – 9:00pm Thursday, and 9:00am – 5:00pm Friday
Meals – Thursday lunch and dinner and Friday lunch are included
Cost – ATI Students $50 each, Non-ATI students $75 each.
Accommodation is not included. If you need help in sorting out some options please contact the office.

Annual Family Conference 2026
2026-01-19 09:00 - 2026-01-21 21:00 | Kilsyth South Baptist Church, 382-388 Liverpool Rd,, Kilsyth South, Victoria, 3137, Australia
“My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into divers temptations; knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that you may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.”
James 1:2-4
Our theme for our 2026 Annual Family Conference is: “Count It All Joy.” It can be easy to get discouraged as we face difficulties in life and see the challenges our culture is facing. God’s desire for us as believers is that we lift our eyes off ourselves and our circumstances and look to Him. Instead of just enduring the trials of life, Christ actually calls us to count these tests as joy!
How can we be joyful in the midst of hardship and why should we count these these trials as joy? Because God wants to conform us into the image of Christ through the temporal suffering we are going through. We are able to experience joy even in our affliction, because we know He is doing an eternal work in our lives! II Corinthians 4:17 says: “For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.” God shapes us more into the image of His Son as we respond rightly to the irritations and tests we face in life by counting them all joy, through His divine enablement.
Jesus told His disciples in John 16:33 that in the world they would have tribulation. But then He tells them what their response should be : “But be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.”
As believers, the joy of the Lord is our strength. Even in the midst of persecution, rejection and trials, we can rejoice because Christ has overcome the world and He dwells in us!
We trust that your family will be encouraged and challenged at the 2026 Annual Family Conference through the engaging messages and meaningful fellowship to look to the Lord and experience His super-abounding joy even in the midst of trials!

ATI Scripture Memory Bee 2025
2025-08-09 09:00 - 17:00 | 4 Haig Rd Mount Evelyn, 4 Haig Rd, Mount Everlyn, Victoria, 3796, Australia
In a world that seems to constantly drain our souls and pull us down, do you need refreshment. God’s word promises us that
“The Law of the Lord is PERFECT,
Reviving the Soul” Psalm 19:7
The Scripture Memory Bees are a wonderful experience for all to attend. For those who are memorizing, this day provides an opportunity to share what they’ve been working on and bless others as they hear the Word. For those who want encouragement to memorize or to encourage their families, this is a day for them to see the example set for them and be encouraged by the reviving power of the Word of God.
There are a variety of activities throughout the day as well as time spent being refreshed by those quoting their memorized verses. This means that even if you have children who have not memorized there will be activities they can participate in. Other activities include: Verse Scavenger Hunt, Scripture in Song , and Bible quizzes and competitions. This day is one of our favourites each year and we hope that you will be able to join us and experience for yourselves the blessing of a day having your soul revived.
Once you register, you will be contacted by us to submit the verses/chapters/books that you have memorized and the version you memorized in. Then we will prepare to test you on the day, by having you recite your passage(s) while we all look on and see how accurate you can be. Scoring in based on the number of verses accurately recited. Competition Categories you can enter are as follows: Preschool, Ages 6-10, Ages 11-16, Ages 17+ and Families.
We have the wonderful problem of having so many reciting to fit into the day, so we have had to bring in a time limit to each category so that we can make sure we have time for all the sharing. Here are the time limitations for each category:
Preschool – 5 minutes
Ages 6-10 – 15 minutes
Ages 11-16 – 30 minutes
Ages 17+ -30 minutes
Families – 15 minutes
Where: 4 Haig Rd Mount Evelyn VIC 3796

Student Conference 2025
2025-01-23 09:00 - 2025-01-24 17:00 | 4 Haig Rd Mount Evelyn, 4 Haig Rd, Mount Everlyn, Victoria, 3796, Australia
“But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.” Matthew 13:16-17
We are so blessed with all the revelations about God that we have grown up with. The question really is, what are we doing with this information. Are our eyes really seeing and our ears really hearing. When faced with the challenges in the world around us do we see what God is doing? And in our own lives when we are looking for direction do we have eyes and ears to see what God is leading us to?
Join us for two days of great fellowship with other youth, while together we seek to grow our understanding on how to truly see what God is doing in each of our lives and also in the world and how we can each be a part of His working in this age.
We are excited to have changed up the format a bit and we’ll have a points system back and many exciting plans for our time together. Join us to build friendships and set aside two days to fix our eyes again on the Lord and hearing from Him.
Details:
Time – 9:00am – 9:00pm Thursday, and 9:00am – 5:00pm Friday
Meals – Thursday lunch and dinner and Friday lunch are included
Cost – ATI Students $50 each, Non-ATI students $75 each.
Accommodation is not included. If you need help in sorting out some options please contact the office.

Annual Family Conference 2025
2025-01-20 09:00 - 2025-01-23 20:00 | Kilsyth South Baptist Church, 382-388 Liverpool Rd,, Kilsyth South, Victoria, 3137, Australia
We see God’s glory displayed in so many amazing ways! His glory declared in the heavens. Psalm 19:1 states: “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork”. Observing God’s creation is one aspect of the marvellous display of His glory. However, the greatest revelation of the glory of God is in the face of His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ! The Apostle John related the profound experience of being an eyewitness to Jesus while He was on earth: “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” (John 1:14). How often do we stop and take time to behold God’s glory? In the challenges and busyness of daily life and work, all too easily we can lose our focus on the eternal.

Our desire is that we would shift our focus from ourselves and our circumstances to the glory and majesty of our Lord Jesus Christ. The reality is that we become what we behold; what we focus on we conform our lives to. Incredibly, when we behold the Lord and His glory through spending time with Him and seeking Him in His Word, we are changed into His image by His Spirit. Scripture reveals this profound process of transformation: ”But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord” (II Corinthians 3:18).
Gather with us as we gain a fresh vision of God’s glory and a renewed desire to be channels of His glory in our homes, churches, and communities.

Once again our Pathfinder Program (age 6-12) is being headed up by Jacob Evans and his great team of volunteers. Everybody involved loves their time in this theme based program that uses illustrations to open children’s eyes to spiritual truths. We’re not sure if the children or the leaders enjoy the time more, but both have a fantastic time. So don’t forget to sign your children up, and if your young people 15 and up are interested in joining in as leaders please fill that out as well.

Innovators (ages 13-14) this year is all about the mark that we are aiming for. We aim to challenge young people to think about their goals in life and to see if what they are aiming at is actually where they are called to go. May God use this time together to inspire them to ‘seek first His kingdom and His righteousness.’

Sunbeams (ages 2-5) will be a morning program for children to get their wriggles out and enjoy fun playing with other children. They will be joining in the Pathfinder program during stories, songs and scripture memory and then having open playing time for the rest of the morning. Sign them up for the fun and learning they can experience. They will be with you for the rest of the time, so this is a great opportunity to give them to be active before sitting with you in the sessions.
There are many opportunities for your 15+ year old to be involved. They are welcome to apply to serve in the teams leading Pathfinders, Innovators and Sunbeams, join in with the adult sessions, or serve in the kitchen with Pastor Michael if that is their bent. There will also be some specific student sessions that are chosen to inspire them to follow Christ and be in Prayer. During lunch and dinner there will be the opportunity for them to join in the Choir (ages 13+) and the Orchestra (13+) the music will be sent to you prior to the program, so they can get a head-start on learning the pieces before joining the others in practices which will end in a presentation on the Wednesday at the completion of the event.

For food this year we will only be providing Wednesday night dinner at Kilsyth South Baptist Church. For breakfast, lunch and the other dinners it is strictly BYO. There are plenty of options close by in Kilsyth South that you can pop out to and get some lunch, or if you prefer you can bring your own. However, there are no cooking facilities available, or fridge space, so please be as self-sufficient as possible. Feel free to eat your evening meal at Haig road so that you can get more fellowship time in with the other families.
We do not have many options for accommodation and it is strictly first come first serve, you are welcome to camp at Haig road, but there are only portable bathroom facilities. Please organise your own accommodation if you are able to.
Cost:
Conference – ATI Family($150), Guest Family ($250), Individual Guest ($100), Individual ATI member ($50), First time Family ($200)
Programs – Sunbeams $5 per child capped at $10 per family, Pathfinders – $21 per child capped at $80 per family, Innovators – $15 per child capped at $25 per family
Food – Children (3-10) dinners $6 each, Adult (11+) dinners $9 each

2024-08-03 09:00 - 17:30 | 4 Haig Rd Mount Evelyn, 4 Haig Rd, Mount Everlyn, Victoria, 3796, Australia
How’s your sword work? When it comes to scripture we need to be prepared with our sword wielding ability. Join us to celebrate those who have put in the time and effort to grow their memory bank of scripture for the battle we are engaged in. “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.” 2 Corinthians 10:4
The Scripture Memory Bees are a wonderful experience for all to attend. For those who are memorising, this day provides an opportunity to share what they’ve been working on and bless others as they hear the Word. For those who want encouragement to memorise or to encourage their families, this is a day for them to see the example set for them and be encouraged to find how God’s living and active Word is truly sharper than a two edged sword in their lives.
There are a variety of activities throughout the day as well as time spent watching people’s scriptural ‘Sword demonstrations’. This means that even if you have children who have not memorised there will be activities they can participate in. Other activities include: Verse Scavenger Hunt, Scripture in Song , and Bible quizzes and competitions. This day is one of our favourites each year and we hope that you will be able to join us and experience for yourselves the blessing of a day ‘tasting’ the ‘bread’ of the Word of God.
Once you register, you will be contacted by us to submit the verses/chapters/books that you have memorised and the version you memorised in. Then we will prepare to test you on the day, by having you recite your passage(s) while we all look on and see how accurate you can be. Scoring in based on the number of verses accurately recited. Competition Categories you can enter are as follows: Preschool, Ages 6-10, Ages 11-16, Ages 17+ and Families.
Where: 4 Haig Rd Mount Evelyn VIC 3796
Cost: $20 ATI Family or $30 for a non-ATI family, $5 for an individual (or $10 for Families who do not want to enter the reciting)
Lunch of soup and rolls is available for $3 per person.

Annual Family Conference
2024-01-21 17:30 - 2024-01-24 19:00 | Kilsyth South Baptist Church, 382-388 Liverpool Rd,, Kilsyth South, Victoria, 3137, Australia
Join us as we delve into our need to grow in prayer in the face of the building anxiety of our times.
This event is full of fellowship with like-minded families, faith building and inspiring messages, and children programs that not only entertain, but build them up in the Lord.
We are looking forward to great messages from Gabriel Cleator and Pastor Michael Drennan. As well as these messages, we are excited to share messages from the US family conference from impacting speakers like: Caleb Reed, Nathan Johnston, Gill Bates, Eric Ludy, David Gibbs Jnr. Our prayer is that these messages will, by God’s Spirit, enable us to break free from the “rocking chair” of anxiety and on our knees to prayer that drives us forward to victory.

Once again our Pathfinder Program (age 6-12) is being headed up by Jacob Evans and his great team of volunteers. Everybody involved loves their time in this theme based program that uses illustrations to open children’s eyes to spiritual truths. We’re not sure if the children or the leaders enjoy the time more, but both have a fantastic time. So don’t forget to sign your children up, and if your young people 15 and up are interested in joining in as leaders please fill that out as well.

Innovators (ages 13-14) this year is all about the mark that we are aiming for. We aim to challenge young people to think about their goals in life and to see if what they are aiming at is actually where they are called to go. May God use this time together to inspire them to ‘seek first His kingdom and His righteousness.’

Sunbeams (ages 2-5) will be a morning program for children to get their wriggles out and enjoy fun playing with other children. They will be joining in the Pathfinder program during stories, songs and scripture memory and then having open playing time for the rest of the morning. Sign them up for the fun and learning they can experience. They will be with you for the rest of the time, so this is a great opportunity to give them to be active before sitting with you in the sessions.
There are many opportunities for your 15+ year old to be involved. They are welcome to apply to serve in the teams leading Pathfinders, Innovators and Sunbeams, join in with the adult sessions, or serve in the kitchen with Pastor Michael if that is their bent. There will also be some specific student sessions that are chosen to inspire them to follow Christ and be in Prayer. During lunch and dinner there will be the opportunity for them to join in the Choir (ages 13+) and the Orchestra (13+) the music will be sent to you prior to the program, so they can get a head-start on learning the pieces before joining the others in practices which will end in a presentation on the Wednesday at the completion of the event.

For food this year there will be a fellowship BBQ dinner on Sunday night at Haig Rd and then Pastor Michael will be cooking dinners. For breakfast and lunch it is strictly BYO. There are plenty of options close by in Kilsyth South that you can pop out to and get some lunch, or if you prefer you can bring your own. However, there are no cooking facilities available, or fridge space, so please be as self-sufficient as possible.
We do not have many options for accommodation and it is strictly first come first serve, you are welcome to camp at Haig road, but there are only portable bathroom facilities. Please organise your own accommodation if you are able to.
Cost:
Conference – ATI Family($150), Guest Family ($250), Individual Guest ($100), Individual ATI member ($50), First time Family ($200)
Programs – Sunbeams $9 per child capped at $18 per family, Pathfinders – $21 per child capped at $80 per family, Innovators – $15 per child capped at $25 per family
Food – Children (3-10) dinners $6 each, Adult (11+) dinners $9 each
Overall, this program is a wonderful opportunity for your whole family to be uplifted and inspired as children of God at the start of this year 2024!
