Detonate is our thriving Youth Ministry at Grace Church. Running every Friday night during the school term, it really is the best way to start off your weekend!

We are all about building relationships with each other and God. We take simple truths about who God is and mix it in with awesome social nights, impacting speakers, amazing camps, and crazy small group nights!

So if you are Year 9-13, come along and check us out, we'd love to see you! We meet from 8-9.30pm (doors open from 7.30 pm) at Grace Church. Contact Waweru Kanene for more information about this ministry.

Breakout is our youth discipleship programme, which focuses on in-depth spiritual growth for our young people. It is a special time for those seeking to grow deeper in God's word. We join the main church in the worship time and later go to the youth lounge for bible study.

Breakout is an amazing time for youth to come and ask the big questions about God. There are amazing leaders who are committed to helping our rangatahi to get answers to those big life questions. It is a great time to engage with the Scriptures and how it relates to their day-to-day life.

So, if you are Year 7-12, come along and check us out. The leasers are looking forward to seeing you. For more information contact our Youth Pastor, Waweru Kanene. 

There are a number of Christian camps in our region, and many of our youth serve at these exciting camps during their holidays. We encourage our young people to experience this ministry for themselves, because we know that this supportive environment is a place where they will be challenged and develop essential leadership skills as a result.

We believe in equipping our young people to become strong leaders who can positively impact our community, both now and in the future.
