Volunteering to be on team is an amazing way to grow spiritually and learn new skills. The teams carry the promise of meeting lots of new people and receiving far more than they give. Often our best team come through leaders and local church eagle eyed scouts who are committed to developing young leaders.
How about shoulder tapping those you know who have a servant heart and are eager to see God move in unexpected ways? The information they’ll want is below:
Available for those working in Preschool, Kids Zone, Ignite, Blazing Ahead, Cutting Edge, Firewire, Living Room, Hospitality, Stewards or Admin.
It’s like a great big parcel beautifully wrapped with a ginormous bow… If accepted on to team the package deal with cover your Team Together costs, your festival registration cost, pre-festival food and happenings, t-shirts (if applicable) and an MP3 of the festival recordings (you’ll need to order it at the festival). Total value up to $348.
The cost? It’s up to you – pay as little as $90 and as much as the full festival cost. Anything you pay over $90 will be seen as a donation and so we’ll issue you an IRD donation receipt at the end of the financial year.
From meeting place hosts to administrators, teenagers to technos, servers to stewards, prayer people to packer-upers … there’s a place for everyone!

Prayer Ministry It’s not a New Wine event without the opportunity for people to receive prayer ministry. You will be asked to attend a training session held late afternoon on the festival start day and team meetings that are held 45 minutes before each main session (8.15am and 5.45pm)
Stewards Your day could involve anything from directing traffic, to setting up venues, to patrolling the site or checking nametags. This is one of the most hands-on roles with lots of interaction with team and delegates. Smiling is essential! Anticipated time commitment 8 hours a day.
Administration Data entry, registration, serving food, doing dishes, duplicating DVDs, selling resources, hospitality. As part of the admin team you’ll get to meet new people every day and discover how blessed it is to give rather than receive. Anticipated time commitment 8 hours a day.
