Parkour is a safe and fun space to learn about why and how we can follow Jesus. Our team is genuinely interested in teaching the bible and seeing the youth grow and mature in their faith.
A typical night at Parkour Youth Group includes playing active games, reading the bible together, hearing a short bible talk from a youth group leader, having a time for questions and sharing supper together.
When: Each Friday night during school term from 7:00PM-8:30PM
Where: Newington Public School, Newington Blvd, Newington
Who: Youth of Auburn, Newington and surrounding suburbs from Year 6 to Year 12. All youth are welcome, whether they are a committed Christian or just starting to learn about Jesus.

About our parkour youth leaders
Our Parkour Youth Group leaders meet the minimum requirements of safe ministry standards. We are keen to get to know the parents of Parkour Youth. Please do come and say hello to the leaders during pick-up and drop-off!
ANDREW
Andrew enjoys the time to be youthful at heart and sharing in life under the Lordship of King Jesus especially with youths who are about to make some huge life decisions.
Andrew’s day job is getting people to eat more chicken!
Fun food item to take to deserted island: Durians, because perhaps someone might catch a smell and rescue me from the island.
ABE
Abe wants to see young people come to know Jesus and grow in zeal and maturity. He has had the privilege of discipling and mentoring young people at his old church. Abe’s in his first year at Moore College. Previously he worked as a mathematician. Abe’s wife is Rach, his son is Sam and his cat’s called Sima Qian!
Fun food item to take to a deserted island: Sashimi. But honestly, would I even need to bring it if I can catch my own there? Though to be realistic, I don’t have the skills!
YELENA
Yelena is keen to share about Jesus’ love and encourage youth to get to know Him more. During the week Yelena is a Campaigns and Policy Advisor at a consumer advocacy organisation.
Fun food item to take to a deserted island: Medovik (honey cake)
BEN
Ben loves to tell people from every background about Jesus, and finds teaching and getting alongside youth a special privilege. There's surely nothing better to do on a Friday night!
Ben is one of the Pastors at Auburn and Newington Anglican Churches.
Fun food item to take to a deserted island: Durian (controversial, but had to be said!)
