Great Lakes Youth Rally

Youth Rally 2026 is around the corner! Dates are April 17-8. This year’s theme is “Renew” and the speaker will be focusing on Romans 12. Youth Rally is open to all students Grades 6-12. More information and registration coming soon!

What a great wrap up to Youth Rally last night! A HUGE thanks to our committee who made this the best Youth Rally yet! This would NOT have been possible without all the hours, the heavy lifting, the late nights, the prayers, etc. Thank you to Coleman for coming to speak, to Noel, Sydney, Ashley, Luke, Emily and Don for teaching, to Mrs. Tallman for registration support, to Mr. Hunter for coordinating and leading worship, to Mr. & Mrs. Sandiford for the A/V & worship help, and all the planning, to Mr. May for taking charge in cleanup, and to those who hosted students for billets!

What great classes and great learning we got to experience today! Here’s a tid-bit from each class that our students found impactful:

• Learning to Wait - “when we are waiting through trials, we praise. We don’t praise because of what he COULD do, but because of who he is.”

• Hearing God’s Voice - “When we worship, it prepares our hearts and readies us to seek and hear God’s voice.”

• Finding the Creator in Creation - “you will see what you are looking for. If you look for God in nature, you WILL find him”

• Reading God’s Word Even When It’s Hard - “sometimes you have to read the stuff that seems boring, weird and icky in the Bible to deeper understand God’s love for us.“

• Faithful Decision-Making - “we can hear from God when we withdraw, when we gather together and listen, and when the Bible speaks.“

• Reclaiming Your Identity in Christ - “idolatry is desiring someone or something (even a good thing) more than God.“

At this year's Youth Rally, we are bringing back classes! All 3 of these classes will be offered during both class slots. So, students will get to choose 2 of these classes to attend.
