Theme: “REACH”
Before us is a generation. A generation that is lost, lonely and looking. A generation of teens searching for answers, truth, meaning. A Generation ENDANGERED.
Today’s teens face unique challenges and are exposed to a world that threatens their spiritual, mental, and emotional health like never before.
There has never been a more critical time for us to REACH this generation with unapologetic intentionality.
We cannot sit idly by and watch them slip away. It’s time to rise up and bring hope, light, and the salvation of Jesus to those who need it most. Now is the time to REACH and equip a generation ENDANGERED.
Verse: Judges 2:10
“After that whole generation had been gathered to their ancestors, ANOTHER GENERATION GREW UP WHO KNEW NEITHER THE LORD NOR WHAT HE HAD DONE…”

What are people saying?
One of the best youth events ever! It doubled our Sunday attendance.
I had a student lead a friend to Christ within 3 hours of YEC ending!
My group was so excited to get back to share their faith. You guys set us up for a win!
It is probably the best YEC I’ve ever been to, and I have been going for 20+ years.
One of our students got saved at YEC, took the 48 hour challenge, and her friend got saved!
After YEC our students decided they wanted to double the size of our youth group over the next year.
Had a student share her faith with an entire classroom at school after YEC.
We had 3 students accept Christ at YEC and several make decisions to speak with their lost friends.
