Good News for Aotearoa 2026

Encouraging Evangelism across NZ
About this Event

Welcome to Good News for Aotearoa!

Join us at The Journey Church for a two day forum to motivate, encourage, and equip everyone who feels called to spread the good news of Jesus Christ across the nation.

We’re gathering evangelists, gospel workers, and ministry leaders from across Aotearoa for two catalytic days — come join us!

This is a unique chance to be encouraged and inspired in your work for the Lord, and to connect with others from across the motu who also feel called to share God’s heart with those around them.

We have Dan Paterson from Questioning Christianity
