The AFES National Training Event brings together students from right across Australia. Five awesome days in Canberra praising God, digging into his Word, and training to serve Him.
Tuesdays 1pm in Tattersall Lecture Theatre
Thursdays 12pm in the UWA Chapel (repeat of Tuesday)The Bible is God’s word so we want to hear him speak.
That’s why every week during semester 80-100 of us gather in a lecture theatre to hear God’s word proclaimed. We’d love you to join us.

Small Groups
Every week groups of 8-10 students meet to read the Bible, think about it’s implications, and pray.
Small Groups are a great way to grow in your knowledge and love of God and of other students in your faculty.
Equip
Mondays 4-6pm, starting March 12
Serving Jesus effectively requires character, conviction, and competence. Equip is our weekly training sessions designed to help us grow in all three.
This semester you can choose from a range of training electives and wrestle with the topic of prayer in Common Hour, and enjoy dinner with other Christian students from all over campus.
4pm Electives (meet in the Arts Courtyard, 7 August)
Choose from a range of courses designed to equip you to serve Jesus more effectively (see the back of this sheet). If you haven’t done Sharing the Gospel or Uncover, then start with one of them.
If you want to do an elective but can’t make Mondays 4pm, then let us know via the form below (hey that rhymes!) and we’ll try to find another time that will work for you.
Sharing the Gospel
Get experience in a clear, memorable way of explaining the gospel of Jesus.
Uncover: Luke’s Gospel
Learn how to introduce someone to Jesus through the gospel of Luke.
Small Group Leader Training
Learn how to effectively lead a Bible study group at Christian Union or in your church.
Music Ministry
Discover what the Bible says about music in church, and how we can use it well for God.
Biblical Theology
Learn how the whole Bible fits together into one overarching story of God’s plan for the world.
5pm Common Hour (Arts Lecture Room 4)
Common Hour is a seminar-style session (think something like Mid Year Conference seminars). This semester we’re going to be exploring the topic of Prayer: Talking to God.
6pm Dinner
We work together to provide dinner for each other over the semester. For $40 for the semester you’ll get dinner after every Equip session to help sustain you for the trip home.
