CONFERENCE | ACC Victoria

This year’s conference is all about going deeper—deeper into Scripture, deeper into calling and deeper into the presence of God.

God’s Word is an unending source of life and strength—a wellspring that never runs dry. In a world that constantly drains us, He invites us to return to His living Word each day, to be renewed, instructed and empowered.

We’ve designed this conference to be a powerful time of equipping, led by dynamic, Spirit-filled preachers who will unpack the Word with clarity, depth and prophetic insight.

Our prayer is that you, as pastors and leaders, will leave refreshed, refocused and filled to overflowing—ready to pour out into your teams, churches and communities.

Come ready to draw from the Wellspring.

KIDS
STREAM

ages 2 - grade SIX

State Conference isn’t just for pastors and leaders—it’s a powerful moment for your kids too. We’re believing they’ll have a fresh encounter with God and be inspired to step boldly into the life He’s calling them to live.

We’ve got two exciting programs running throughout the conference: one for early childhood and another for primary-aged kids.

Your primary kids are in for an adventure! Each day they’ll head off-site for fun-filled excursions and in the evenings, they’ll experience vibrant praise and worship, powerful messages, high-energy games and more.

Meanwhile, our early childhood crew will stay onsite, enjoying a safe, joy-packed environment full of creative activities designed just for them.

YOUTH
STREAM

YEAR 7 - YEAR 12

Get ready—this year’s youth stream is shaping up to be an incredible week!

Across both mornings, teenagers will hear from powerful, high-impact youth speakers who are passionate about investing in the next generation. Afterwards they will head to off-site excursions lined up to keep the energy high and connection strong.

Each evening, the youth will join the main conference for worship and powerful moments in God’s presence—we believe every teen will leave inspired, challenged and encouraged.

The Youth Alive team can’t wait to host your teenagers at this year’s conference!
