Dear university student ministry leaders,
As you know, we are in the process of planning the ASA Leadership Training
weekend 1-4 February 2008, which will be held in conjunction with ASA
Convention on the Sunshine Coast. We developing this weekend around the
theme of journeying as a leader, and we will be including the following
creative ideas:
We will also have relevant presentations and workshops on the following
areas:
I’m starting to put together a list of people who we could invite, and based
on some initial phone calls, the Leadership Training event is already 40%
full. However, with the busload coming up from Melbourne, we could be much
closer to capacity.
Could you send me your list of people who show a lot of leadership potential
in university student ministry and who would benefit from coming to ASA
Leadership Training 2008? I want to make sure that we can have a good
representation from all of the different regions and wouldn’t want anyone to
miss out. However, places are limited.
I hope your ministry is going well.
Regards,
Sven Östring.
ASA President

Hey everyone! Hope you’re all lovely and refreshed from the holidays ;)Â Capture the flag is on as normal this week, but the following email’s just come in from Ruth-Ellen for some extra refreshment 
Next week, to celebrate the first week of daylight saving, we’re planning on a very unique Supersoaker version of Capture the Flag, so I suggest you get yourselves the biggest/sneakiest/most powerful water guns imaginable in preparation for FACTF with a twist! Water balloons are encouraged, the game will involve bunkers constructed from the boys’ kitesurfing kites, and I promise you will get very wet! (So girls, don’t wear white!) More details to come, but plan to be there and bring your friends!
Have an awesome week!
Ruth-Ellen
Hey everyone hope you’re having wonderful holidays! Hope big camp is going awesome!
following email just been sent from Sven from ASA:
The ASA Executive Team is constructing an exciting leadership training event for you and your teams who are focusing on Adventist ministry to university students. In February 2008, the ASA Convention will be held at the awesome location of the Sunshine. There are rumours that the convenors of the ASA Convention already have 80 university students who expressed their intention to come to Convention, and the maximum number is 110, so spaces are filling up very fast. There will be a 12-seater bus coming up from Melbourne, and we are working on getting a 25-seater bus to come up from Sydney. So, if you do the maths, that means Convention could already be filled!!
As we have done in previous years, we are bundling ASA Convention together with ASA Leadership Training, which will be held during the weekend 1-4 February 2008 just before Convention. We working on the theme of leadership being a journey, with the proposed title “Navigating the Leadership Voyage”. The plenary speaker will be Derek Rippingale, who is a very successful businessman from Victoria as well as being very involved in the youth ministry. For workshops, we have asked the best student ministry leaders in recent years to facilitate relevant workshops on important issues in student ministry. These presenters include:
If you have been on the university ministry circuit, you will know that these presenters are simply the best around Australia. There is, however, a limit of 40 places for ASA Leadership Training, so don’t delay in letting your teams know about this exciting adventure and getting back to us with your numbers.
Have an awesome week!!
In His peace,
Sven
May the peace and grace of God be with you always!
Emm.
