Plans Underway for Ignite Youth Conference in Broken Bay

One of the country’s most powerful conferences for Catholic young people, leaders and families will land in Broken Bay in September.

The Ignite Conference, featuring the theme “Wonder” will run from 28 September to 1 October 2023. It will be the third time it has been held in Sydney but the first time to be hosted by the Diocese of Broken Bay.

It is a conference that really does have something for everyone.

It caters for creche-aged children through to parents, teachers, ministry leaders, and parishioners.

Brisbane-based Conference Director, Kym Keady said on a recent visit to the Diocese;” Families, high school groups, young adults, as well as priests and religious from around the country travel to Ignite every year to be inspired, experience the joy of Jesus and leave with a vibrant, renewed passion for their Catholic faith.

“Many people who have attended have spoken of experiencing life-changing encounters of God through four days of explosive main sessions, powerful preaching, inspiring workshops, dynamic music and the Holy Sacraments of Mass, Reconciliation, and Adoration.

“We are thrilled Broken Bay will be hosting Ignite this year.”

Plans are already well underway as the Ignite Conference is the month following World Youth Day and many students and young adults will be making the pilgrimage to Lisbon, Portugal.

“I am well aware of previous very successful Ignite Conferences, and I am also confidant that Ignite in Broken Bay will be four days of engaging main sessions and workshops,” Bishop Randazzo said.

“For our World Youth Day pilgrims it will provide opportunities for them to continue their faith journey here at home.”

The Ignite vision is to see young people everywhere who are not just changed for a day, but transformed for life.
