Sharing Jesus and building confidence through literature.

Email Literature Evangelism

Youth Rush is an exciting free two-week Literature Evangelism program for young people aged 16-30.

Every school or university holiday, groups of young people around Australia go out to the cities and towns, meeting people and sharing books that meet their needs and point them to Jesus. Youth Rush programs develop skills in faith-sharing, community engagement and personal development, all while expanding the Kingdom of God, making new friends, and strengthening our faith.

  • Free accommodation & meals
  • Free training
  • Easy canvass to learn to share great books in the community

Youth Rush offers specialised training and mentoring, along with books available for donation, focusing on topics related to physical, mental, and spiritual health.

Each day is filled with worship, training, meeting new friends, and sharing literature door-to-door. Weekends are for relaxing, having fun, and sharing different experiences.

Testimonials

I’m more confident in talking to others about God. Experiencing LE work has strengthened my walk with Jesus even more. God is AMAZING!”

Taleah

The highlight of the program was being on the doors. Being able to share God and have conversations with people. There are so many people out there who need connection.

Sarah

The highlight of the program for me was seeing God work in other people’s lives, whether it was others or my own.

Bradley

Building resilience by going on the doors with prayer and relying on God is a privilege.

Andre

I was encouraged by our daily prayer buddy system and goal-setting. It was great to share our testimonies each night as well as each Sabbath.  Loved the local sight-seeing too; these were good suprises. I can’t go back to the way I was!

Seprotina

I loved doing both homes and businesses.  I also liked testimony time in the evenings and Sunday activities.

Diego

The canvass memorization techniques were really helpful.

Lani

Give it a go; you never know whose door you are going to knock on, and the eternal results.

Daniel

It has opened my eyes to what ministry can look like and how important human connection is.

Sydney

The next Youth Rush event will be held in July 2026!

Each Youth Rush event starts with 2 days of training. Training is extremely important, helping us memorise the one-page canvas to be ready to meet people at the door.

Join Leilani, Jeremiah and Sandy and make a difference in someone's life in eastern Victoria this winter!
