YOUTH AND YOUNG ADULTS: NYC 2026

The Church of the Brethren National Youth Conference 2026 will take place July 18-23, 2026, at the YMCA of the Rockies in Estes Park, Colorado. The theme for NYC 2026 is “Light Within Us,” based on Matthew 5:14-16. Youth who have finished 9th grade through their first year of college (or age equivalent) are invited to attend with adult advisors. This will be a week full of fellowship, worship, service projects, recreation, and so much more! Registration opens Jan. 5; visit www.brethren.org/nyc for more information. The cost of NYC is $625 for early bird registration, $650 for regular registration, and $675 for late registration. If you have any questions, reach out to Rachel Johnson (rjohnson@brethren.org). Harold Rose (Canton) attended the recent NYC preview event in Colorado if you have questions about the site, and Christy Waltersdorff coordinated NYC at Estes Park back in the 1980’s! 

*If your congregation is considering sending youth and adults to NYC next summer, please contact the district office so we can begin to compile a list for possible transportation options.
