Lakes Youth Extreme (previously SaltLite) is a great place for upper primary children to make friends and have fun while learning about Jesus. Each week we kick things off with a short game, followed by a Bible talk, before moving on to a broader all-in activity.

Lakes Youth (years 7-12)

7pm-9pm Fridays
Term 2 runs 23 April – 25 June 2021

At Lakes Youth (previously Salt) we aim to build up and encourage young people in their relationship with God and each other. We hang out, have fun and see what God’s Word says and the impact this has on our daily lives. We also have an annual Youth Camp where we get away from the hustle and bustle, grow in our friendships and dig deeper into the Word of God together.

Attendance at this group is FREE!

Teens from years 7-9 meet on Sunday mornings during the services. We typically start with a fun game or activity before moving to a time of bible study and prayer. This is a great opportunity for teens to deepen their relationship with God and each another.

Church@5

5pm Sundays

Our evening service is a little more laid back than morning church but we still do the same things and hear the same talk that was given in the morning. Many young adults, teenagers, uni-students and shift-workers come along to this service, as well as people of all ages who just prefer to be part of church in the evening. Everyone is welcome.

Rather than leaving straight after the service, we like to hang around and chat over supper. Under normal circumstances, we provide free refreshments but while social distancing restrictions are still in place we’re unable to do this. However tea, coffee and bottled water are available to purchase in our cafe.

Please note: there is no Creche or Kids Church during Church@5

Faithfulness in Service Document

“Going to Salt camp was an amazing experience. Spending time with Christian friends that care about you, in Gods wonderful creation, from the beautiful land to the stars and moon. It was great opportunity to talk about things that Christians believe, ask questions and discuss them around the campfire. We definitely grew in our faith and relationship with one another. Can’t wait for next year!!!”
