Rallying the youth
Youth Alive events in every state have seen large crowds of teenagers gather together with the same passion, excitement and spirit of the past forty years.
Cameron Bennett, National Director of Youth Alive, stated: "One of the great strengths of Youth Alive, is the ability to continue to evolve in such a way that it presents the same Gospel message, in a culturally relevant way to each new generation."
Queensland's Wonderworld event is Youth Alive reimagined, an outreach event that was unapologetic in presenting the Good News of Jesus Christ. Wonderworld is fast becoming the best Christian alternative to the many festivals young people are drawn to.
Held at the iconic Butter Factory in Brisbane South, the night was packed with young people on rides, lining up at food trucks, watching extreme sports, while listening to various music artists.
"Young people thrive when they are together, which was very evident at Wonderworld, our first large scale event since the covid restrictions, " said Renee Bennett. "They need each other and they need the hope that only Jesus can bring!"
