Sports Chaplaincy New Zealand currently has more teams and clubs wanting chaplains, than the number of chaplains they are able to provide.

If you love God, care about people, and can roll with the triumphs, trials and tragedies of sport, then you may have what it takes to be a sports chaplain.

They are seeking volunteers who can commit 4-6 hours per week. They supply training, accreditation and support to place you in a local sports community as a sports chaplain.

Are you wanting to deepen your faith or prepare for ministry? 

Or do you sense a call to inspire young people as a primary or secondary school teacher?  

Would you like to serve others through healing hearts, minds, and relationships as a counsellor? 

Maybe study is your next step!

Join us on May 27th to explore your study options at our Open Night Online. Whether you’re interested in theology, biblical studies, mission, ministry, teaching, or counselling, we’ll have staff available to talk with you and answer any questions you may have.

Laidlaw College has been training men and women to renew their communities in the light of the Gospel for over 100 years. We’d love to talk with you about how study could equip you to outwork God’s call on your life.

We are fast heading into the day of Pentecost, and we’re excited to be joining nearly a hundred churches across New Zealand in the Pentecost Prayer Initiative.

Thousands of people will be going to prayer rooms and other prayer gatherings to seek God over these 10 days. Let's be asking God to revive His church and to rewire our culture so the lost will be reached and His kingdom advanced.

Let's pray the ancient prayer, “Your kingdom come, Your will be done, here in Aotearoa New Zealand as it is in heaven”

We'd love to see your photos and videos of your prayer gatherings over this time, and also to hear the stories of what God does as we set aside this time to seek him. Please email us your photos, videos and stories to office@thestreet.org.nz

If you're posting to social media, the team at 24/7 prayer would love you to use the hashtag #247prayernz or tag them in your posts @247prayernz.

There is also a daily devotional for the 10 days that 24/7 prayer have produced, which you can check out here

 How do we interact with and love our neighbour when we hold differing values? How do we raise children to be confident in who God has made them to be? Traditional ways of communicating have often taken a defensive or argumentative approach. Jesus was never on the defensive. This seminar will look at how Christians can be confident in their faith while maintaining an openness to others who hold different perspectives and values.

The seminar is targeted at parents, but will be fruitful for anyone involved in raising or working with children or for adults wondering about these questions for themselves in their community or workplace.

Join Richard Black for a seminar titled: 'Cultivating a discipleship mindset to raise the next generation in a diverse world' If you come from a traditional Christian perspective, the changes in our society around gender diversity and sexuality can be confusing and confronting. This seminar will look at how Christians can be confident in their faith while maintaining an openness to others who hold different perspectives and values.

Date: Saturday 22nd June Time: 9am - 3:30pm (doors open at 8:30am)
