Register now for Youth Annual Conference 2010
The 2010 Youth Annual Conference (YAC) will be Tuesday, June 8 through Saturday, June 12, at Nebraska Wesleyan University in Lincoln. YAC is open to any youth who have graduated from the eighth grade through graduating high school seniors. Each district is asked to send registrations for two (2) youth to represent their district at as members of the Annual Conference.This year's theme is "Our Way of Life," taken from the Apostle Paul's words to the community of faith in Corinth: "For we are what God has made us, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand to be our way of life."
During their time at YAC, participants will be discovering their God-given strengths and gifts. Each youth will take part in the "Strengths Finder" assessment created by the Gallup Organization, with the help of the Rev. Dr. Al Winseman, a United Methodist clergyman who is the Religious and Social Trends editor for Gallup. Winseman will help the youth understand what their strengths mean for their life and their ministry.
There will be plenty of free time, small groups for spiritual growth, and an entire day set aside to do mission and outreach in the Lincoln community.
Check-in begins at 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, June 8, at Wesleyan. Youth are asked to arrive no later than 2:45 p.m. The residence halls are located off of 53rd and Madison, on the north side of campus. The conference will end the morning of Saturday, June 12.
Print and fill out the registration form, health waiver and youth covenant forms, and mail them, along with a check for $150, made out to Conference Treasurer, to YAC10, 4444 Frances St., Omaha NE 68104. The registration deadline is May 21, 2010.
