Making Disciples
Matthew – Alex Kim
God has not left us to live the Christian life alone. He calls us to be his disciples. What does that look like for our youth? We will look at what it means to be a disciple in the Gospel according to Matthew and also look at three key disciples who lived out discipleship.

The Speaker - Alex Kim
Alex Kim is a Korean, American, Australian living in Sydney. He is currently ministering at Sydney Young Nak npc (SYNC) as an assistant minister. With over 15 years in youth ministry wither as a teacher, director, or minister, he believes that reaching and connecting the next generation to Jesus is crucial for the mission of discipleship. He is the husband to Jo-Anne, and father of four children: Joel, Emma, Theo, and Gabby. His hope is that each of you will follow Christ through this camp.
Lead for Life
Lead for Life is the Presbyterian Youth internship programme. It is a yearlong program for developing leaders to gain training and experience to lead at their church.
Through this programme we aim to:
- Help build the foundations of faith by providing young leaders with a deeper understanding of God’s word that they might love Him.
- Stimulate young leaders’ to grow in godly character by helping them nurture their relationship with God.
- Train young leaders in practical skills of leadership and ministering to others.
Being part of the program involves residential training. This runs for 6 day at PY Summer Camp where the bulk of the learning will take place. The teaching sessions are run by qualified ministers of the Presbyterian Church.

Kids Program (0 – Year 6)
PYNSW values the time and commitment that parents show by serving on Camps. For this reason PYNSW runs a Kids Program, for the children of leaders. Children from birth to Year 6 are catered for during Summer Camp. Once your leader registration has been processed, we will send out a link to the online registration for the kids program.
Need a WWCC?
A WWCC (Working With Children Check) is a mandatory requirement for anyone working with children and young people. If you do not have a WWCC Certificate you must apply as a Volunteer ASAP as it may take some time to process.
