Nova Church, Adelaide

Sam & Hannah Long are the Lead Pastors of Nova, a multi-site church in Adelaide pioneered in April 2019. Characterised by their big hearts for people, strong leadership and passion for the presence of God, Sam & Hannah have quickly become key ministry voices in the nation. One of the distinctives of Nova Church is their laser focus to ‘save souls & make disciples’ resulting in many hundreds of people, particularly young adults, coming to faith in Jesus through Nova’s university ministry and Sunday services. Having spoken in previous years at Calvary Youth campus and Young Adults retreats, we’re thrilled to welcome Pastor Sam back for Calvary Conference 2025.

HIGHLIGHTS & SCHEDULE

Conference FAQ

Where can I find information about the event agenda and schedule?

What meals are included?

Dinner on both evenings are included for all delegates (kids and youth included) and morning tea is included in the registration cost.

Can I register for just the day or night session?

This year we have shortened conference so that its more accessible and we expect that registrations will be full! As a result, we won’t be able to offer single day or single night registrations.

Can I gift a registration?

Yes! Register and gift a sponsorship here:

I'm volunteering, do I still need to register?

Yes, we encourage all volunteers to also be delegates, meaning you will be able to attend sessions in between serving. If you have any questions about serving, please speak to your leader.

I'm travelling, do you have accomodation suggestions?

Yes, see below:

If I book my ticket online, how do I collect my conference pass?

Conference passes can be collected at the information desk on Sunday of the conference week (Townsville and Sunshine Coast campuses only). Additionally, the registration desk will open three hours before the conference opening night for pass collection.

I can't pay by credit card; is there an alternate payment method?

Yes! You are welcome to register at the conference desk on a Sunday who will help facilitate this.

I have special accessibility needs/dietary requirements; can you accomodate me?

Yes we can. We will have Gluten Free and Dairy Free morning tea options available provided you’ve indicated a 'Dietary Requirement' on your registration. We also have ramps, lifts and accessibility toilets onsite for people who may need this.
