Vision
TO SEE EVERY YOUNG PERSON IN AUSTRALIA LIVE THEIR FULL GOD PURPOSE
2024 has been a year of incredible growth for Youth Alive Tasmania that has seen us start new initiatives that have reached many hundreds of teenagers and partner with youth ministries to raise leaders across the state.
This year we have seen a significant increase in engagement across our events and youth ministries with a massive highlight being the launch of Main Event, our first statewide rally in over 12 years. Our Academy campus officially launched in 2024, and our leadership events continue to grow in strength. Our Undivided regional outreach events have also increased to the point that in 2025 we plan to launch our fourth region!
It has been a privilege to steward this movement as it continues to grow in momentum alongside the many youth pastors, teams, and ministries who in faith have enlarged their vision to see young people encounter God. I pray you will be encouraged as you read all of our wins below in what has been our best year yet!
Lastly I would love to thank our staff and volunteers who have given their time and gifts, our youth pastors who are investing into the next generation, and our financial supporters who position us to reach young people. It is as one body that we are seeing young people reached with the message of Jesus, furthering the vision to see Tassie saved.

YOUTH ALIVE ACADEMY
In 2024 we launched Youth Alive Academy in North-West Tas. We have seen 5 students attend our campus, with one more attending Academy Air (online). Throughout 2024 these students have had access to exemplary teachings from some of Australia’s greatest leaders, and opportunities to grow in their gifts and callings across Youth Alive events.
We can’t wait to continue growing Academy and raising the next generation of leaders in 2025!
SOCIAL ENGAGEMENT
In 2024 we saw a 15.1% increase in our social media engagement across our platforms facebook and instagram.
We look forward to continually growing our audience as it is a key way we reach young people across Tasmania.
For the last two years, Youth Alive Tasmania has worked with Youth Alpha, partnering local youth ministries to the movement which empowers them to strategically follow up on young people after Youth Alive events.

Young people connected to Youth Alpha through Main Event + Undivided events
We are so grateful to God for all He has done in 2024, yet we are believing for even greater things to happen in 2025 as we continue to grow in faith, unity, and momentum.
Can we encourage all Tasmanian pastors, youth leaders and young people to join with us as we set forward with the God-given vision to reach young people, raise leaders, resource youth ministries and revive a generation. If you’re not already involved or connected with Youth Alive Tasmania – please reach out to our team. In 2025 we’d love to work together to reach more young people than ever before.
To every supporter, leader, donor, young person, and above all God:
