Helping Host a Youth Conference
I am thankful for your prayers and support as I serve and lead the fellowship at Calvary Chapel. I am going to be sending updates to keep you informed and ask that you continue to join me in praying for God’s work in my area.
Last month, I was part of the leadership committee. The 13 of us planned and hosted a youth conference for students from all over our region. There were 60 churches represented at the conference. 500+ youth in our district, most of whom are believers in Jesus, attended! The youth conference was held on a soccer field. We had so many youth register that we had to rent a tent to hold everyone for the three days.
The theme of the conference was “Rooted In Christ” from Colossians 2. It was an honor to be asked to teach. It was my first time to share the Word at a youth conference of this size. As I prayed, the Lord laid it on my heart to share from Acts 16, about the life of Timothy. At a young age, Timothy decided to serve the Lord. I challenged the youth to do the same and ask the question….”What are you doing with your life?”
Teaching at the Youth Conference
We had a worship band and much teaching and all were encouraged. I am looking forward to continuing to serve on the Leadership Youth Committee. We are planning host this conference every year. I believe that this generation can make a huge impact for Christ. They just need to be taught and discipled in the Word so that they can defend their faith and share it with other young people.
Please pray for our fellowship of believers. Please pray that they would grow strong in the Word and that we would have many opportunities to share the Gospel with others.Also, we will be hosting a medical outreach at the end of November in our church. Pray that as those who are sick come, that we would be able to minister to them spiritually while we are ministering to them physically.
Thank you,
Pastor Milan
