History

When Hillsong Church started in 1983, known as Hills Christian Life Centre, a youth group was established. The first youth pastor was Darko Culjak who was a bible college student at the time. Donna Crouch was appointed as an assistant in late 1984 due to the expansion of the youth group. Donna Crouch became the youth leader in 1987 . Phil and Lucinda Dooley became youth pastor in 1996, when the youth comprised of two age groups, Wildlife and Powerhouse. After a revival at the 1998 Summer camp, the youth ministry began to have "United Nights" when both age groups came together. This is where the name of the youth ministry, Hillsong United, came from. When Sydney Christian Life Centre became the "City Campus" of Hillsong Church, they adopted the Hillsong United youth format, as have all extension services. In 2007, Paul and Andi Andrew became the new youth pastors, as Phil and Lucinda Dooley moved into other areas..... In March 2008, Hillsong United released their first "hits" compilation called "The I Heart Revolution: With Hearts As One" which consists of two CDs containing live performances of the band's hit songs. Phil Dooley is a Pentecostal Christian pastor in the Assemblies of God. ...
