Is there more to parish life than just Sunday Mass? Yes—so much more.

The Hope and Renewal Summit is a national gathering for Catholics across Aotearoa who are ready to rediscover the vibrant, Spirit-filled life of the Church beyond the pews. Whether you’re a parish volunteer, a parent, a young adult, or someone who simply wants to see their faith community come alive—this Summit is for you. 2-4 October 2025 (for Clergy), 3-4 October (for everyone) at the Awapuni Racecourse, Palmerston North.

Join clergy, parish leaders, and lay people from around the country as we ask bold questions, explore real answers, and learn how to build thriving parishes where faith is lived, shared, and grown. Registrations now open! For more information and to register: hoperenewalsummit.com
