14th to 17th July 2026

The ACTIV8 Pro-Life Youth Camp is open to anyone aged 16 to 25 years old (with exceptions considered on a case-by-case basis).

Our youth camp is four days of fun, food, friendship, and formation in pro-topics that is held in the July holidays.

You’ll get to make lots of awesome new friends from all over the country, and spend quality time together growing in your knowledge about the importance of respecting the sacredness of every human life regardless of their age, location, or stage of development.

We cover topics like:

  • Morality and truth

  • What pro-lifers really believe

  • The wonder of human life in the womb

  • Disability and abortion

  • Responding to pro-choice claims

  • Abortion in New Zealand

  • How to dialogue with people who aren’t pro-life

  • How to get involved

  • The courage to be pro-life

Along with our presentations, we also hear powerful testimonies from people engaged at the coalface on these issues, take time each day for small group activities, watch and discuss films with pro-life themes, AND LOTS MORE!

Whether you’re new to this and have questions about what it means to be pro-life, or you’re someone whose certain of your views, our ACTIV8 Pro-Life Youth Camp has something for everyone!

We’d really love to see you at the next one!
