Bites are short, focused team workshops that equip youth and children ministry leaders with tools to grow and lead with confidence and creativity.

Bites is run in partnership with other local churches creating a collaborative space to grow, learn, and lead.

“Every session consistently provides us with at least one powerful, practical takeaway that we can put into action right away."

Brent Diack - Papakura Salvation Army.
“Bites has helped us as a team by providing a space for us to receive inspiration from other experienced leaders and a dedicated space to sit and discuss the ideas on the spot.”

Helen Treasure - Kumeū Baptist

FAQs

Biters training is for the whole team. We work hard to make it as accessible as possible for our young teenage leaders—breaking concepts down into bite-sized chunks and allowing plenty of time for team input.
Even if it’s just you or one other attending, you’ll still find great value. We can place you at tables with other small teams, and we also provide downloadable content you can share with the rest of your team if they’re unable to make it.
