2023 IMPACT REPORT
Youth Alive Tasmania exists to reach young people, raise leaders, resource youth ministries, and revive a generation for Jesus.
2023 has been an amazing year for Youth Alive. We have reached hundreds of young people with the Gospel, equipped leaders, and built up youth ministries.
This year has seen us introduce a series of outreach events focused on evangelism and reaching young people. This focus has also included supporting local youth ministry events through our Evangelism Fund.
It is a privilege to partner with so many Youth Pastors, Leaders and Ministries as we continue to move towards our goal of seeing Tasmania saved for Christ. There is such a unity across this state and excitement for where God is taking us.
Together we move forward to see more young people find faith, more leaders raised up, more ministries grow, and the kingdom advance. As you read this report I pray you are encouraged in what God is doing across this state and generation!
I also want to thank every volunteer who has helped Youth Alive, as well as the people and churches that have supported us. Thank you for sharing in this great vision for our state, together we are laying a strong foundation of faith for the generations to come.

Youth Alive Academy
Youth Alive Academy is an eclectic mix of Higher Education study, specialising in youth culture, as well as diving into the bible, all the while developing personal leadership. Academy will continue to raise up the next generation of leaders as we look to create a campus for next year's students.

Youth Alive also created spaces for Youth Pastors to gather together with the chance to network and hear from some great voices of youth and spiritual leadership and authority.
YOUTH ALPHA
Spaces for young people to have conversations about life, faith & purpose after Youth Alive outreach events
Establishing Youth Alpha content as the follow-up from Undivided has seen over 119 young people connected to Alpha through the youth series, life essentials, and other content.
This year we also partnered with Youth Alpha to help run “Spheres,” a new initiative to see student leaders trained and equipped to run Youth Alpha programs in their schools.
ONLINE ENGAGEMENT
17.3% increase across all social media platforms
Increased influence across our social media platforms has allowed us to outreach to more young people, and raise awareness of other youth ministries.
We thank God for everything He has done in 2023, and look forward with faith and great expectation to what He has planned for Tassie in 2024.
We would love to extend an invitation for you to support Youth Alive as we continue to make an eternal difference by reaching young people, raising leaders, resourcing ministries, and reviving a generation.
