Stepping up to leadership

“Going Somewhere” is an eight-week regional leadership programme for people in their senior high school years, at tertiary study or starting out in their first job. It’s for people who’ve got potential to make a difference but need some encouragement and empowerment to do it. Going Somewhere is also a great opportunity for young adults to meet and be inspired by other leaders in their regions. [more]

Presbytality

Have you got young people moving on to work or study in a city next year?

Presbytality is about connecting young people on the move with youth workers/leaders in their new home. It’s about offering young people the opportunity to link up with a new church if they want to, but mostly, it’s about offering hospitality. We’ll connect your young person with a youth worker who will take them out for a coffee and be someone they can catch up with in a new city. For more info contact the PYM Office 03 208 6076 or youth(at)presbyterian.org.nz
