Epic All In

We are EPIC Youth, the Youth of CityLife Church.

We are EPIC Youth, the Youth of CityLife Church. We are one church in multiple locations: Knox, Manningham, Casey, Whittlesea, Melbourne City and Online. EPIC Youth exists to partner with families to create a platform and environment where young people can encounter God and explore their faith. We meet every Friday night during the school term from 7-9:30pm, both online and in person. We alternate between different styled events and Life Groups each Friday night. At our events we gather together for discipleship, community, games, fun, food and to also encounter God through worship, original contemporary music and relevant teaching. Life Groups are small groups, where high-school-aged young people can journey together alongside leaders, in a safe and relaxed environment to ask questions, talk about God, the Bible, school, family and life. Most importantly, at EPIC Youth we desire to see every young person experience the love, value, acceptance, and sense of belonging that comes from the outflow of our love for Jesus. Everyone is welcome and we encourage our young people to bring their friends and family from school, work, sport and neighbourhood to join our EPIC Youth family.

2025-26 OVERFLOW: Love in action

Imagine a world where God's Kingdom life overflows from every heart into our communities, cities, and nations. That's our vision at EPIC Youth for 2025-2026! We’re on a mission to multiply disciples, all fuelled by empowering and equipping young people. Through immersive training in personal and ministry prayer, evangelism, and leadership, we’re equipping our youth to share their stories and ignite change. We're not just dreaming big; we're acting on it—launching our youth into the world. Join us in this exciting journey of growth and transformation as we bring God's overflowing love to life!

John 7:38: "Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them."

We would love to welcome you into the EPIC youth family!

EPIC Youth Camp 2025

Fri 4 Jul - Sun 6 Jul
It's a weekend where our youth experience powerful worship, build strong connections, encounter God in unique ways, and get equipped for Overflowing life.

We're running TWO campsites simultaneously at Phillip Island. One is for years 7-10, and the other for years 11-12. This way, we can tailor our program to suit each age group, making it an even greater experience. Both groups will combine for the night rally’s.

Our theme for this camp is 'Overflow!' as we continue our focus on Overflowing life. This year we have special guest Dave Edgar, state director of Youth Alive, speaking empowering and equipping messages on how we can reach our world with the message and hope of Jesus!

Join us for an unforgettable weekend of growth, fun, and faith-building!

Water Baptism

Water baptism is far more than a ritual or religious exercise. It’s a public, outward declaration that reflects a personal, inward faith.

If you've decided to follow Jesus, water baptism is one of your next steps.

Schoolies on Mission

Our ‘Schoolies On Mission’ trip, exclusively offered to our year 12 students is an alternative to “Schoolies”. Our heart is to redeem this rite of passage, which our culture has traditionally used for self-focused experiences, and instead engage our school leavers in a far greater pursuit with an eternal impact. This trip will be significant in each individual’s life both personally and spiritually, as they step beyond the borders of Australia and into Cambodia to serve. Our prayer is that God would mould and transform their hearts and use them to impact others for His Kingdom.

This trip is a celebration of their many years of schooling and journey with EPIC Youth, aiding their transition into adulthood and ownership of their faith beyond Year 12. Our Youth Pastors and leaders are looking forward to taking a team of passionate young men and women who want to do something significant for God, with Schoolies On Mission.

This year’s dates are 6 Dec – 20 Dec 2025. Contact us for more details.

Child and Youth Safety and Protection

CityLife Church is committed to the safety, protection and wellbeing of all children and young people. This is of fundamental importance as we seek to nurture and encourage all children and young people to grow in the knowledge that they were created in the image of God, who loves and cares for them.

CityLife Church is committed to providing safe people, places and programs for all children to participate in, with particular attention to those who have diverse circumstances and who are at greater risk of facing prejudice, exclusion, and discrimination. As such, CityLife Church is particularly committed to protecting the wellbeing of children and young people with disabilities, from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, with diverse sexual orientation and/or gender identity, and those who are unable to live at home. We are committed to working with families in a mutually respectful and reciprocal way, to provide a community of faith that is caring, for children and young people to feel welcome.
