July 10-15 | ShoalhavenSoul Revival Week Away 2026
What to ExpectWeek Away is for all ages and has always been a time of fun and refreshment; intentionally building closer friendships as we spend a week together while getting to know our God better through his word, the Bible.
In the heart of the Shoalhaven, we are surrounded by 262 acres of green pastures, untouched native bushland and the Shoalhaven River. It doesn’t get much better!
❋ Open the WordWe hear from God’s word every morning
❋ Fun Kids ProgramDuring the morning sessions, the kids hang out in an awesome kids program
❋ Heaps of free timeIt’s a holiday, so each afternoon is free time so you can chose to do whatever if you like.
❋ Growing as friendsWhether it is over a meal, over a board game, a game of golf or a coffee at Berry, Week Away is all about building closer friendships and there are plenty of ways to do it.
Our 2026 Week Away Speaker
Dave Jensen
We’re delighted to welcome Dave Jensen as our guest speaker for Week Away for 2026.
Dave serves with Evangelism & New Churches (ENC), a ministry focused on helping more people in more places find life and hope in Jesus Christ.
He brings a deep love for the gospel, a heart for the local church, and a gift for communicating biblical truth with clarity and warmth.
Dave will be with us across the week, opening God’s word and helping us think carefully and practically about knowing and sharing the good news of Jesus in everyday life.
We’re very thankful Dave is able to join us and look forward to being shaped and encouraged through his teaching.

What’s On
Week Away has plenty happening, with a range of optional activities to enjoy across the week. Jump in as much or as little as you like.
There’ll be favourites like Trivia Night, Band Night featuring xxx and of course the famous Saturday afternoon Soirée – always a highlight and not to be missed. You never know, Bingo, features xxxx might even make a comeback.
If organised activities aren’t your thing, you can absolutely make your own fun. Head into Berry for coffee, enjoy a round of golf, go for a scenic drive, or simply relax and explore. There’s plenty to do in and around the Shoalhaven, whatever pace you’re after.
Day Away at Week Away
If you can only come to Week Away for one day, why don't you come on the Sunday and enjoy our special Sunday - Day Away at Week Away.
To accommodate Day Away, our Sunday session will start a little later than the other days - at 10am, giving everyone plenty of time to get down.
After the Sunday talk, there will be a short morning tea and then Discussion Groups. After that there will be lunch and then around 3pm afternoon tea.
The price for Day Away is $55 per person.
You will need to register for Day Away at Week Away using the rego form.
Kids and Week Away
Kids love Week Away!
If you are coming along with kids here are some things for you to know.
Week Away runs a fantastic kids program that operates during the morning session, giving kids a fun, safe and engaging space while the main sessions are on.
Once the morning session finishes and small group time begins, there is no kids program running, so parents should plan for kids to be with them at that point.
Kids love bringing scooters to Week Away, which is always a highlight. If your child is bringing a scooter, please make sure they also bring (and wear) a helmet.
Kids shirts will be available again this year. The subsidised cost is $20. If it is a stretch this year for you, thats okay just chose the option “shirt no pay” in the registration form. If you’re able to contribute, there will be an option to do so when you register.
Week Away 26 Merch
Week Away merch will be available again this year, including hoodies – perfect for cool mornings, late‑night chats and everything in between.
All merch can be purchased through the Soulies Shop, so feel free to take a look and grab something ahead of time (or while you’re there). It’s a great way to remember the week and be cosy while you do it.
Week Away Merch will be available for purchase from xxx to xxxx.
