CMA – Advancing Ministry. Governance, leadership and management for church, ministry and Christian business.

CMA 2019 Melbourne - June 4-5

CMA is returning to Melbourne for its 17th annual conference in 2019.

Already, nearly 300 church, ministry and business leaders are registered, and our exhibition hall is almost full. We expect over 400 to be in attendance, and are praying that these two days will be beneficial and inspiring for our delegates. We are busy finalising the program now.

Optional Networking Events

On Monday night, at the Pan Pacific adjacent to the Convention Centre, you're welcome to join us for our 'First Time Attendees' networking function. If you're a delegate who hasn't before to a CMA Conference, this is your chance to meet some new friends before the conference gets underway. If you're not a first timer, you're still welcome, but you've got to promise that you'll make our first-time guests feel welcome!

On the Tuesday night, join us for 'Networking Under the Sea' in the Fish Bowl, at SeaLife Aquarium! No speakers, no program, just a couple of hours of networking with new and old friends, sponsors and speakers, with drinks and canapes.

Both events are optional, and a cost applies in addition to the main conference registration. Use the Registration page to book.
