Discover a new way to experience leader development and youth ministry training
For youth and adults
One day can make a difference in the health and sustainability of your ministry with and for young people! Take the PATH to these new one-day seminars for youth and adults in six different locations across the denomination. Consider adding a night and bringing your young people to a special Friday night event focusing on youth and vocation.
PATHWAYS events offer youth, youth leaders, volunteers and professionals opportunities to learn new skills, reflect theologically about youth ministry, consider their call and their gifts, network with youth and adult youth workers and take their ideas and resources back into their communities, congregations and regions.
Presentations are designed specifically for youth and adults in a series of plenary and breakout sessions. Registration fees are reasonable and include refreshments, lunch and resources.
PATHWAYS is the perfect way to gather, inspire and consider what it means to be a leader in the church and in the world.
