“I Found My Faith at KYCK”: Charlotte’s KYCK Story
Charlotte never expected a random invitation to youth group would completely change the direction of her life. After years of years trying to fill what she describes as a “Jesus-sized hole” in her heart, she came to KYCK expecting a fun weekend with friends and instead met the Jesus who loved her freely and completely.
1. Please introduce yourself!
Heyyy my name is Charlotte, I attend MOBC (Mortdale Oatley Baptist Church) and I’ve attended KYCK 2 times now!
2. Tell us a bit about faith background.
I grew up going to church because I had to for school. I attended a Catholic Primary School and was taught that I would need to earn my way to heaven through a multitude of works. For 5/6 year old me, it sounded like a lot of effort to try to make someone love me. For about 10 years after that, I was in the world, trying to fill what I now know was a Jesus-sized hole in my heart, with things of the world.
On a random Friday I had a friend ask me “hey, my church runs a youth group on Fridays, do you want to come?” and I said yes. I don’t know why I said yes because I had never really been a “religious” person but after attending my second week of youth, I was hooked. I wanted to know who this ‘Jesus guy’ was who claimed to love me, without me having to earn it. KYCK 25 came around and I attended with my youth group. I wasn’t expecting much, just to have fun and hang with mates, but I ended up learning so much about God that it made me want to commit my life to Him.
I ended up learning so much about God that it made me want to commit my life to Him.
And that’s what I did! I found my faith at KYCK. This year, I made sure to go up the back of the shed and renew the promise to Jesus that I would stop running and let Him in on every aspect of my life!!
3. What’s the main takeaway for you from KYCK 26?
The most important thing for me this year was to stop running from God and really let Him enter all the rooms of my life. To let Him change me and who I am as a person so I can really make disciples and tell my friends and family about Jesus!
4. If someone’s never been to KYCK, what would you say to them?
I would say come. It did wonders for my faith and I know it can do wonders for yours. It’s an awesome way to spend time with friends and learn more about the free gift we have in Jesus, and the friend we have in Him too.
5. How has KYCK encouraged your faith?
KYCK has helped me grow in my faith by helping me understand God’s character even better but also by breaking down books that I would’ve never guessed had a deeper meaning. I would’ve always thought that Jonah was about a guy who got swallowed by a fish and then told people about God. KYCK helped me understand the deeper meaning of God’s mercy and compassion for us.

Ministering with Joy: 4 Ways to Get Ready for the Day
Setting aside a little time to prepare can help you be fully present for what God has in store. Here are 4 simple ways to prepare your head and heart for our one-day event.
1. Get to know the songs ahead of time
We first saw Liam & Jenny Denny lead worship at Katoomba Easter Convention this year with their band Mountainkind.
We’re excited to welcome the duo to Oxygen to bring a stripped back, acoustic sound to our worship sessions. You can listen to our Spotify playlist here.
2. Pray for the day
Pray for renewed joy. Pray that God would refresh weary hearts and restore the joy of serving Christ. Ask that every attendee would leave with a renewed delight in the privilege of gospel ministry.
Pray for endurance. Pray for attendees who are experiencing discouragement, burnout, isolation. Ask God to strengthen them to endure faithfully and keep their eyes fixed on Jesus through every season of ministry.
Pray for Matt Fuller as he teaches. Ask God to give him wisdom, clarity, humility, and courage as he opens God’s Word, and that his teaching would encourage and equip everyone attending.
Pray for encouraging fellowship. Pray that the day would be marked by honest conversations and genuine encouragement. Pray that attendees would feel less alone and return to their ministries strengthened for the work God has called them to.
3. Invite someone to come with you
Who can you bring joy to and gift a day of refreshment? Consider inviting a fellow pastor, ministry worker, volunteer, or someone from your church team. You’ll have someone to reflect with throughout the day and continue the conversations afterwards.

5 Ways To Prepare for OneLove This August
OneLove 2026 is almost here! We’re so excited to gather with almost 2,000 women as we lift our eyes to Jesus and strengthen our trust in the One who abundantly provides.
Here are five simple ways you can get ready in the lead-up:
1. Familiarise Yourself with the Songs
Worship is a beautiful part of the OneLove experience. Get to know the songs ahead of time so you can engage fully on the day. We’ve made it easy with our official OneLove 2026 Spotify playlist. Listen here
2. Start Praying for OneLove
True Satisfaction: Pray that every woman attending would come with a heart ready to unmask the false promises of our world. Ask that they would lay aside the exhausting pursuit of achievement, approval, and control, and open their hearts to encounter the rest found only in Jesus. Pray that women wouldn’t just attend the conference but be deeply transformed by the truth they hear.
Faithful Teaching: Lift up Melissa Kruger and Justine Toh as they speak at OneLove 2026. Pray for health, safe travels and that the Holy Spirit would lead them, giving them boldness and faithfully point women to the abundant provision of God through His Word.
Rich Fellowship: Pray for rich fellowship and meaningful encouragement across generations. May the joy of this wider sisterhood remind every woman that they are not alone, but united because of Christ.
For Volunteers & Staff: Pray for the staff, volunteers, and everyone working behind the scenes to make OneLove 2026 happen. Ask for physical energy, joy in their service, and smooth logistics, praying that their teamwork would reflect Christ’s love and run seamlessly.
3. Figure Out Your Transport
Planning your transport early will save stress on the day. While there’s plenty of parking onsite, we’d love to encourage carpooling with your friends!
You can also consider public transport options. It’s a 3 minute walk from Norwest Metro Station or short bus trip from Blacktown or Parramatta Stations.
4. Pack Smart for the Day
While OneLove will have food, books, and merch available, it’s a good idea to bring a few basics:
A water bottle
Your favourite pen to take notes
A physical Bible
5. Invite Someone to Join You
You never know who might say yes.
Whether it’s a friend from church, your sister, a neighbour or a coworker, OneLove can be a life-changing experience for someone who’s never been.
OneLove 2026 is almost here! We’re so excited to gather with almost 2,000 women as

“God Isn’t Random”: Holly’s KYCK Story
Holly has been to KYCK four times, but this year was different. After a season of doubt, unanswered questions, and personal loss, she came face to face with a powerful truth through Jonah, that God isn’t random, even when life doesn’t make sense.
1. Please introduce yourself!
I’m Holly and this is my 4th time at KYCK!
2. Tell us a bit about faith background.
I grew up in a Christian household but didn’t really felt like a Christian until late last year. I didn’t really feel like God was ACTUALLY there and it felt like He never answered my prayers and I often felt quite alone. One night I whispered “God, if you’re really there why aren’t you showing me?” My uncle also passed away and I couldn’t understand why God decided it was his time and none of it made sense to me. It wasn’t until KYCK this year that I learnt that God isn’t random in the slightest. Jonah’s story showed me that there was a reason for my uncle’s death, and while I don’t know what the reason is, I’m almost certain he knows what He’s doing. I also realised that God doesn’t always answer prayers instantly, and sometimes they need to be answered later in life.
“Jonah’s story showed me that there was a reason for my uncle’s death, and while I don’t know what the reason is, I’m almost certain he knows what He’s doing.”
3. What’s the main takeaway for you from KYCK 26?
God isn’t random, theres always a reason.
4. If someone’s never been to KYCK, what would you say to them?
KYCK is an amazing convention where christians from all around Australia come to learn about Jesus together.
5. What’s the funniest thing that’s happened at KYCK?
My youth group (upper mountains) had a ‘KYCK’s got talent’ and one of the entries was someone pretending to struggle doing a single pushup — it was very funny.

“Jesus Doesn’t Reject Us”: Emilyn’s KYCK Story
After giving her life to Jesus at a camp in 2023, Emilyn has continued to grow in her faith and KYCK has been a key part of that journey. This year, she was reminded of a powerful truth: no matter how many times we run, Jesus never rejects us.
1. Please introduce yourself!
My name is Emilyn and I’ve been to KYCK 3 times!
2. Tell us a bit about faith background.
I grew up in a Christian home but I gave my life to Jesus at another camp in 2023 when I was 14. My faith continued to get deeper and the following year, I went to KYCK which helped me so much to continue to grow and experience God’s love!!!
3. What’s the main takeaway for you from KYCK 26?
From this year’s KYCK, I have taken home that Jesus does not reject us, no matter how many times we reject Him. His mercy is so great, there is nothing we have to done to earn it, but there is also nothing we can do to get away from it!!
“Jesus does not reject us, no matter how many times we reject Him.”
4. If someone’s never been to KYCK, what would you say to them?
I would say that KYCK is bound to be one of the best weekends of your life! It is such an incredible opportunity to learn about Jesus, experience His love, make new friends, connect more deeply to your youth group, and to fall more and more in love with Jesus!!
“I would say that KYCK is bound to be one of the best weekends of your life!”
5. What’s the funniest thing that’s happened at KYCK?
Meeting new friends and randomly guessing their names and getting them right!!
6. How has KYCK encouraged your faith?
KYCK has helped me to grow in my faith because of the themes each year. You really learn and deeply understand certain aspects of faith and about Jesus (such as His mercy or the freedom we receive in Christ!)

A Faith Refocused: Cooper’s Spark Story
For Cooper, KCC Conventions have long been a space to re-centre and refocus his faith. After ‘graduating’ KYCK, he came along to Spark with others from his church where he found it to be a meaningful weekend in fellowship and God’s Word.
1. Please introduce yourself and tell us a little about your faith journey.
I’m Cooper from Molong District Baptist Church and I’m 19.
I committed my life to Christ at KYCK 2019, and would say I later truly fell in love with God. I’ve been attending KCC conventions (particularly KYCK) every time I could, and they’ve always been a good way for me to re-centre and refocus my faith.
2. What made you want to attend Spark?
I attended SPARK with a group of young adults from my church so that we could wrestle with Scripture and continue to grow in fellowship together.
3. Describe your Spark experience! What was a highlight for you?
My SPARK experience last year was an overall positive, and extremely constructive for my faith at the time. It kept my head inside God’s good Word. A highlight for me, though, was late night free time with people from other churches, where we played board games into crazy late hours, laughing and talking about life and faith.

4. One main takeaway from the weekend?
I loved hearing Preston and Jackie Hill Perry talking about their walks with each other. I loved how whacky and awesome their love story was and how they came to know each other inside of having faith. It certainly gave me a little more confidence and hope on a topic which I think every young Christian will wrestle with.
5. What would you say to someone who’s on the fence about coming to Spark?
KCC conventions have been life-changing for me and they have become so important for me to bring people along to. I would greatly encourage anyone to make the effort — you just don’t know how much fun you’ll have.
Get your ticket now.
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. Register here.

“PEAK”: Connor’s KYCK Story
For Connor, KYCK isn’t new but it never gets old! Growing up knowing Jesus, he was reminded again that no matter what life throws at him, Christ’s love and support never changes.
1. Please introduce yourself!
Hey! My name is Connor and I’m from St Mick’s youth group Wollongong and this will be my 5th KYCK!!!
2. Tell us a bit about faith background.
I’ve forever known Jesus throughout my life as I grew up in a Christian household so Jesus never left my life.
3. What’s the main takeaway for you from KYCK 26?
The fact that Jesus will always step to support and love us throughout life. It will always be the one thing that will stay true in my life.
4. If someone’s not a Christian or never been to KYCK, what would you say to them?
Go to KYCK and ASK THOSE QUESTIONS (the questions that cast over your mind about Christianity)!!!!
KYCK is one of — if not the BEST place for true Christian encouragement where you can fully dive into God’s word. How will you get answers if questions are not asked?

Meet the KYCK Committee: Hannah Killen
For National Volunteer Week, it’s a privilege to introduce some of the dedicated hearts that make KYCK possible. Today, the spotlight is on Hannah, who joined the committee last year!
1. Can you please introduce yourself and your role in the KYCK committee?
I’m Hannah Killen, and I’m the newest member of the KYCK committee, I joined last year and am learning and helping out wherever I can but focusing at the moment on elements of the program.
2. Coffee or tea?
Ooo honestly until recently I drank both equally by the litre but nowadays it’s gotta be tea.
3. What is your favourite worship song?
Now if Olivia Dean released worship music that’d be top of my list but until then, I always come back to Build My Life by Pat Barrett.
4. Did you attend KYCK as a teenager?
I came to KYCK as a youth, and I’ve got to be honest, I couldn’t tell you what the talks were about. But I do remember the car ride chats with my leader driving and my friends in the back, and the veryyy late nights cramped on blow-up mattresses, talking through our big, unanswered questions about God.
KYCK was a big step for me in realising that being a Christian isn’t something to be ashamed of or something you should be scared to share. I felt so much bolder after KYCK because I grew closer with people from my church, and it gave me the courage to tell others about Jesus at school in the weeks, months, and even years that followed.
KYCK was a big step for me in realising that being a Christian isn’t something to be ashamed of…
5. Why do you volunteer?
I’m passionate about young people encountering the powerful life and person of Jesus, and I think that learning about Jesus and being in Christian community should be fun, full of creativity, and bursting with life. I want to be part of seeing that happen.
6. Do you have a favourite KYCK memory?
The first time I came as a leader on the Saturday night.
When the invitation is given for those who’d like to follow Jesus to head out the back, it’s that moment before everyone returns that really undoes me. Just thinking about it… the image of heaven rejoicing as we stand together in the shed, it feels like a taste of heaven. And that’s what fuels me to keep going in ministry and to be bolder in sharing Jesus.
Just thinking about it… the image of heaven rejoicing as we stand together in the shed, it feels like a taste of heaven.
7. What’s your favourite KYCK merch item?
Can’t go past the iconic hoodies – every year they just seem to get better.
8. Tell us how you met Jesus?
It was more a case of Jesus meeting me. I grew up always knowing He was real, but it wasn’t until my early teens, after watching a lot of hardship and suffering in my family, that I started to really doubt whether He cared about me at all.
In that mess, when I felt lost and confused about where Jesus was in all the pain my family was going through, He met me there. He showed me that He wasn’t distant or laughing at my suffering, but sitting with me in it.
In that mess, when I felt lost and confused about where Jesus was in all the pain my family was going through, He met me there.
He’d already been through it on the cross, showing His love, not to shame us for our sin, but to show us that we can’t do it on our own. He’s the one who brings us forgiveness.
9. What’s something you love about KYCK?
The list feels endless but you can’t beat the community. It’s getting to see the universal church come together under the banner of Jesus as Lord, and it’s a beautiful thing to see this cross generationally (that being, bums in seats from ages 13 to 60+).
It’s getting to see the universal church come together under the banner of Jesus as Lord…
10. Finally, if you could go back and tell your teenage self one thing, what would it be?
Don’t idolise people or things over Jesus. Everything and everyone pales in comparison. Don’t get caught up chasing people’s approval or trying to measure up, you already have the Holy Spirit with you, speaking truth as you read God’s Word.

Meet the KYCK Committee: Joshua Hayward
For National Volunteer Week, it’s a privilege to introduce some of the dedicated hearts that make KYCK possible. This week, the spotlight is on Josh, who has been serving on the committee since 2023! Having attended the conference himself as a teenager, Josh brings a deep passion for seeing young people grow in their relationship with Jesus.
1. Can you please introduce yourself and your role in the KYCK committee?
Hi! I’m Josh, I’m currently at church at All Saints Petersham and love being part of the Program team on the committee. I’ve been on the committee since 2023.
2. Coffee or tea?
Coffee. Like, a lot.
3. What is your current and all-time favourite worship song?
Father You Are All We Need by Citizens. (So good!).
Current favourite song is probably Who You say I Am by Hillsong.
4. Did you attend KYCK as a teenager?
I did! I loved having the Bible preached in a way that was clear, applicable, and helpful, and really did help me follow Jesus. I have fond memories of going around during morning tea, meeting a bunch of people from other youth groups, and hearing about what God was doing in other parts of the world.
5. Why do you volunteer?
There is nothing better than seeing people come to know and grow in Jesus. Volunteering is a great way to serve Jesus and his people. Using the time and energy he has given me to help KYCK be faithful and fun is a no-brainer!
6. Do you have a favourite KYCK memory?
Every Saturday night ever. It is such a privilege to be a part of someone’s story with Jesus, and to sit and listen to the way God has been at work in their life in bringing them to trust in his Son for life.
7. What’s your favourite KYCK merch item?
I have a limited edition KYCK hat from maybe 2019 that I may or may not have “borrowed” from Andy Stevenson, former chair of the committee. It’s pretty well-loved (ignore the sweat stains), but I think it’s still pretty good!
8. Tell us how you met Jesus?
When I was 15, I realised that everything I had learned as a kid about Jesus was true. He really is holy, I really am sinful, but he really is gracious. And his grace is SO much bigger than my sin! So I got to trust in Him for forgiveness and life, and I’ve been loving following Him since! (And still regularly reminded that His grace is bigger than my sin).
9. What’s something you love about KYCK?
I love that KYCK is an opportunity for thousands of young people to come together for the name of Jesus and hear his Word. Especially for young people who might feel alone in the Christian life, whether they are the only Christian in their school/town or might not have a youth group at their church, KYCK is an opportunity to see that you’re not alone. Jesus is Lord, and there are a whole bunch of young people also following Him!
10. Finally, if you could go back and tell your teenage self one thing, what would it be?
Living for Jesus really is better. In every way! So live with him as King.

Deep Mercy: Highlights from KYCK 1–3
Over three weekends, more than 5,600 teenagers and youth leaders attended the KYCK conference in Katoomba. Founded in 1993, KYCK is a Bible preaching event aimed at inspiring high schoolers to live for Jesus alone. Each year, youth are invited to hear and respond to God’s word through powerful Bible talks, uplifting worship in song (led by Aslandia in Week 1, Seraph in Week 2, and Gather in Week 3), inspiring testimonies, and a Saturday afternoon scavenger hunt.
“We had a great time at KYCK! The talks were great, the worship was so encouraging, and the youth left challenged to run to Jesus.” – Nikita, KYCK 26 Youth Leader
Over the years, KYCK has become a treasured space for teenagers to explore and deepen their faith with like-minded company. Each year, teenagers travel far and wide for fellowship in Katoomba. We are so encouraged that in 2026, we had 201 youth groups from 21 different denominations including youth groups from the ACT and NT!
“Just the fellowship I get to have each year there and it reminds me each year I’m not alone in my journey with Christ.” – Naomi, KYCK 26 Youth
This year, speakers Pre Shunmugan and Chris Mann opened the book of Jonah to explore the theme of deep mercy. They helped youth uncover the reality of running from God and the call to surrender to Him, showing that while we deserve judgment, God responds with extraordinary mercy to those who cry out to Him.
“(I was most encouraged by) Learning how much more there is to Jonah than just him and the fish, and how deep Gods mercy is for us even though we don’t deserve it.” – Abigail, KYCK 26 Youth
“I have really been challenged this year to think about the ways I’m running from the Lord or hiding from him which has been great to think over and create practical changes.” – Zali, KYCK 26 Youth
“Only running to the deep mercy of God will save you.” – Pre Shunmugan
“The talk about the rooms of our lives that we tend to keep the doors locked so God can’t get in also impacted me and really challenged me to think about how and which doors I have closed off to God, and how i want to go about opening those doors and trusting Him to work in those aspects of my life.” – Charlotte, KYCK 26 Youth
Through Jonah’s story, young people were challenged to see both their own hearts and God’s and were confronted with the question of what they truly care about. Chris’ last talk invited them to share in God’s compassion for those who are lost.
“I pray God might do something in all of us this weekend. Something we can’t shake. He would give us His heart for the lost, for the thousands in our schools, in this city, for the millions in Australia, for the billions in the nations that don’t know Jesus.” – Chris Mann
Above all, they pointed to Jesus as the greater Jonah, the one who took our place so that we might receive mercy and be sent out to live for Him. You cannot save yourself.
Special guest Katie Stringer also lead an engaging and interactive seminar on how to share Jesus with others. Youth were also invited to respond by submitting answers which showed up on the screen in real-time, reflecting how they feel about sharing Jesus with others.
“Katie Stringers talk was so inspiring it encouraged me to be bold and share the gospel!!!!!!!!!!” – Tabitha, KYCK 26 Youth
“…kids were inspired to start prayer and Bible study groups at their schools.” – Evan, KYCK 26 Youth Leader
“May you do an amazing thing through the young people gathered in this room today Lord. We know 7000 teenagers are coming to KYCK this year… Could you send 7000 out to share Jesus with their friends in their ordinary days – May we put our hand in yours, feel the fear and do it anyway. And would you turn our ordinary days into something extraordinary … Even more than we could ask or imagine!” – Katie Stringer
As KYCK came to a close, youth had the opportunity to share open mic reflections, giving voice to what God had been doing in their lives across the weekend. These moments were both powerful and encouraging, as many spoke of being challenged, convicted, and renewed in their faith. Watch a snippet from KYCK 2 below.
Over three huge weekends, we witnessed the powerful work of the Holy Spirit: 72 youth put their trust in Jesus for the first time, 330 recommitted their lives to Him, and 82 said they want to know more about Jesus. Praise God!
For teens already walking with Jesus, KYCK is a chance to hear God’s Word taught by speakers outside their usual church circles—bringing familiar truths to life in new and meaningful ways. It’s also a powerful reminder that they’re not alone in their faith, but part of a much bigger movement of young believers across Australia.
“(I was most encouraged) To see all these youth groups from so far come together and praise God together — also seeing so many people become a part of God’s family on Saturday night.” – Sophia, KYCK 26 Youth
“I committed my life to Jesus at KYCK and it’s gonna change my life.” – Milly, KYCK 26 Youth
“I remember I used to be unsure about my faith in God, but KYCK brought me friends who encouraged me to go back to church and KYCK which in turn has helped me bring some of my friends to know the Lord Jesus.” – Beth, KYCK 26 Youth
This community extended beyond the mountains, with the second weekend of KYCK available via online livestream — making it possible for youth to join from wherever they were.
Thank you to every youth group, leader, volunteer, speaker, musician, and attendee who made these weekends so special. Please keep praying that God would continue growing the seeds planted at KYCK long after the mountain weekends are over!
Early Bird tickets are still available for KYCK 4 this September!
