The following info may help with your registration choices:

  • Strands: If you haven’t been to NTE before we recommend stand 1
  • Registration: Full
  • Accommodation: RMIT students are recommended to select camping, because that way we’ll be all together, as well as being close to the conference centre.  Rest assured, meals are cooked for you, there are proper toilets, hot water, and you can use your hair dryer in the bathrooms!  You are required to supply all your own camping gear (tent, mat, etc), but can probably share with others who already have a tent.

Transport: We will drive up together on Friday 2 December and return on Wednesday 7 December.  We have hired a bus, and will car pool any additional cars needed.  Transport cost approx $60.

What are these Missions?

At the Christian Union, we are committed in training Christian University Students to share their faith and to teach and encourage other Christians.  So each year, in the week before the National Training Event (NTE) Conference in Canberra, we join together with three churches in Victoria to run outreach missions.  You get training and experience helping with a church for five days, doing things like:

  • Giving testimonies
  • Giving a Bible talk
  • Teaching Sunday school
  • Running a youth group event
  • Running a service at a nursing home
  • Leading Bible studies
  • decorating gingerbread men
  • pulling weeds

There will be training and assistance for everything.  It is a fantastic opportunity that’s lots of fun and we encourage you all to come along!

Cost: $60, however if you attend the NTE Conference, then the mission is FREE!

You will be allocated to a particular mission team.

Mission Registration

Web registration is now closed, but if you would like to register, please contact one of the leaders.
