Alpha Catholic Conference 2025

In parishes across Australia, we’re sensing a hunger for more; a longing for courage, a desire to be filled anew with the Holy Spirit and to be sent out on mission.
​
That’s why you’re invited to join us for The Way of Hope — a national Alpha Catholic Conference in partnership with the Archdiocese of Sydney.
​
Liverpool Catholic Club, Sydney
Fri 31 Oct – Sat 1 Nov, 2025



This will be a time to pause, receive, and be renewed. Whether you’re experienced in Alpha, curious about Alpha, or simply have a desire to see your parish come alive, The Way of Hope is for you.
​
Over two days, we will gather for inspiring talks and testimonies, with opportunities to connect with others from across Australia on the same journey, growing together as missionary disciples, and having a space to discern what God is doing in your life, your parish, your school, and our Church.
​
Your conference ticket will include all plenary sessions, breakout sessions, panel discussions, time of prayer including Mass and Adoration, two morning teas, two lunches, and dinner on Friday evening.

With Bishop Michael Gielen
We are delighted to welcome Bishop Michael Gielen, Bishop of Christchurch, New Zealand, as our keynote speaker. Bishop Michael has spent over 25 years serving the Church in New Zealand and abroad, from parish ministry to seminary formation to his current role as bishop. Known for his pastoral heart, missionary zeal, and joyful spirit, he is passionate about seeing the Church alive in every generation.
