Renewed & Sent is a national summit that brings together priests, parish teams, and lay people who care deeply about the future of parish life. Over two days, participants will hear from experienced leaders, learn from real stories of renewal, and explore practical ideas that can help their own communities grow in mission.
Whether you are just beginning to ask what renewal could look like, or already leading change in your parish, the summit offers space to listen, reflect, and take the next step with others.
Who Is Sent & Renewed For
Renewed & Sent is designed for people who care deeply about the future of parish life and are seeking practical pathways for renewal.
Priests and parish leaders who desire to see their parish become a place where people encounter Jesus, grow as disciples, and are sent on mission
Those serving in parish ministries who want to explore practical ways to foster evangelisation, discipleship,
and missionary leadership in parish life.
Leaders working at a diocesan level who support parishes and want to connect with others seeking renewal across Australia
Lay people who feel called to help their parish grow in mission and who are seeking encouragement, insight, and practical direction
Across Australia, many parishes are navigating a common pastoral reality.
Yet in the midst of this reality, something else is also true: parish renewal is possible, and it is already happening.
Renewed & Sent exists to create a space where parish leaders can learn from others, explore practical pathways for renewal, and rediscover the parish’s missionary identity.
