REDEEMED
Uncovering
Authentic
Masculinity
OUR MISSION
Our mission for the Redeemed Conference is to build faithful, authentic Catholic masculinity by gathering men for a transformative weekend event. Through outdoor bonding, engaging speakers, and deep fraternity, we aim to inspire and equip participants to live out their faith with courage and integrity.
Our fantastic conference location 2 hours south of Sydney is the ideal place to disconnect from the noise of the world, and reconnect with other men and God through the body, mind, and soul.
01 / FRATERNITY
The Redeemed Conference fosters a brotherhood grounded in activity and discussion, where men can connect, share, and learn from one another.
02 / TOOLS
Our speakers and activities seek to cultivate confidence, resilience, and purpose. We equip men with the tools to thrive and lead with strength and integrity.
03 / IDENTITY
Redeemed is dedicated to uncovering the true essence of masculinity. This is a faithful Catholic environment dedicated to understanding ourselves in the light of Revelation and the Church.
