Drive in the main entrance and you will be directed to parking. Then walk to the registration area in the shelter near the main auditorium. There you will receive your nametag, NTE resources, and accommodation details.
The first session will start at 2pm exactly.
Arriving later than 2pm? Let us know by Friday 29 November
There will be a coffee cart in the main auditorium selling coffee, hot chocolate and tea. Profits will go to support Myanmar Fellowship of Evangelical Students. It’s a double-win: your caffeine needs are catered for, and your money goes to a worthy cause. More details at NTE2o24 In the Regions – Queensland.
If you are feeling unwell then please do not attend, or wait until recovered according to the necessary exclusion period and being considered non-infectious before attending (e.g. minimum exclusion periods for infectious conditions for schools).

Together with his wife, he has worked in student ministry for over 30 years. David has learned much about both confidence and humility by making a million mistakes and seeing God do great things in the midst of it all.
David says that his two best decisions were accepting Jesus as Lord and Saviour when he was 6 years old, and asking Cathy to marry him a number of years later. The fact that they both accepted him, David counts as incredible works of grace.
