KPM Youth Leaders Conference Report
If numbers say anything, then it’s a good sign. We had the largest conference in it’s 14 year history. Over 600 participants! Every session was packed out, with people sitting in overflow rooms and in the isles of the auditorium. God strongly influenced the whole current of the conference and guided everyone’s hearts and minds into the theme, the hands of the speaker, the seminars, the worship and the other activities. It was an amazing process to witness.
The theme of the week was “Christ in you - not from ourselves”. Sessions included, being rooted in Christ through four roots – Word, prayer, Holy Spirit and Body (church). Then there were sessions on the four branches of growth or pathways to fruitfulness which were; obedience, love in action, worship, and evangelism. There was also a session on the poisons that harm our growth and fruit bearing, which were; hypocrisy, hard hearts, secularizing the sacred and broken relationships.
Here are a few translated comments from participants. (more…)
We are so excited about the life of our new youth ministry resource website! We’ve been waiting for years for this big step forward. This makes our youth ministry resources more accessible, plus it enables us to have live contact with the youth workers community across the country.
Many of these youth workers have little or no encouragement from their home churches. Each year they travel to the event by train and car from over 180 places throughout Slovakia. KPM introduces them to others who are “crazy” enough to give of their life, gifts, energy, and free time to reach the next generation for Christ. This strategic conference also involves over 100 volunteers who serve the participants both practically and spiritually.
