Over 100 volunteers gathered for the biannual National Conference that was held in Adelaide, the last weekend in August 2026. Months of planning from the Conference Organising Committee, culminated in a 3 day event with representatives from almost every Region in Australia!
With a theme of “Called to Serve”, inspiration, fellowship and joy were abundantly delivered through testimonies, learning sessions, worship and fun.
A major challenge for the ministry manifests itself in recruitment. To successfully grow the ministry, Kairos needs more volunteers and wider support from church communities. One session was devoted to ideas on how this may be accomplished and delegates were given tools and resources to take back to their Regions.
We give thanks to God for all He has accomplished in 31 years of operation.
We also thank the Conference Committee and the local South Australian volunteers who did so much to bring this conference to life.
Some of the feedback from those who attended:
