Keen to spend a year getting to know more about yourself, God and engaging with other young people? If you are aged 17 – 25, you’re invited to join one of our dynamic teams and other like-minded young people and do a YFC Internship Year. Contact our National Training Manager by emailing derek.tucker@yfc.org.au.

If you’re a Melbourne youth worker, why not come along to a YFC training night and gain some practical skills. You’ll notice the difference as you interact with young people.

All seminars are at One Community Church, 184 Surrey Road, Blackburn (Melways Ref Map 48 A8). These free seminars commence at 7:30 pm and conclude around 9:30 pm. Please RSVP at least 24 hours in advance to assist with catering to the Melbourne office on (03) 9807 4900 or email training.mel@yfc.org.au.

Upcoming seminars for 2011

Keen for you and your church to be more confident to share faith with friends and family? Ready to do evangelism in a way that makes sense in today’s culture?

Three Story Evangelism (developed by YFC) is about relationships and conversations that focus on my story, your story and God’s story. The course is low cost and can be run in your local church. YFC staff and volunteers use a humorous DVD, workbooks, discussion and simple activities to equip groups in evangelism. Contact 3story@yfc.org.au

YFC is a fan of the Youth Alpha course and share its commitment to peer evangelism. Our staff help deliver training in Youth Alpha around Australia, which is coordinated nationally by Jono Green, formerly of YFC Sydney and YFC Melbourne. Contact Jono at Youth Alpha by emailing jono.green@alpha.org.au.

V.I.T.A.L. is a YFC training process that provides an effective framework for youth workers to use whenever working with a variety of young people. It is particularly effective when working with 'youth at risk'. During the course, participants are trained to run No Limits - a YFC school-based program that has met with outstanding results in assisting young people to explore and value their potential. Beyond No Limits, the V.I.T.A.L. training works with all types of young people and situations (leadership programs, camps, youth groups, bible studies).
