REGIONAL YOUTH CONFERENCE

Regional Youth Conference is just under two months away – October 4-5 at Manchester College. Youth will want to attend this engaging and fun-filled weekend.

Phil Jones, director of the Brethren Witness/Washington Office, will lead in exploring Faith and Politics. Major themes include
  • Who is our neighbor?
  • How are we called to respond to the needs of the world?
  • Where do faith and politics intersect?
Youth can look forward to worship, insightful and engaging discussion, opportunities to grow in their faith, and make new friends from across the Midwest, and a special Saturday evening musical event!

The weekend begins with check-in Saturday morning from 8:30 am to 10:00 am, and conclude before lunch on Sunday. Online registration will begin Monday, September 1. Costs for the weekend are $50 for youth and $35 for advisors, and include three meals, snacks, registration, activity fees, and housing.
