Resources for Engaging Young People and Intergenerational Discipleship & Mission - August Update

To help Enable, Equip and Encourage a growing and flourishing church across Queensland, we’ll regularly share links to resources for education, worship, discipleship, and mission both with Young People and Intergenerationally.
