Annual Conferences
Gathering a generation
Multi-day gatherings that inspire, equip, and send young people out to live boldly for Christ.
A CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY FOR TEENS AND YOUNG ADULTS
Raising a generation of Christ-centered leaders.
GYM stands for Great Young Minds, and we believe you're nothing less than that!
As people go to the gym to exercise and gain body fitness, here you'll also be exercised, stretched, groomed and trained to gain balance and muscles to face life and the future ahead of you with all it requires.

Small-group journeys that help young believers grow in scripture, prayer, and community.
Leadership Training
Character before platform
Practical formation for the next generation of leaders in the church, marketplace, and society.
Prayer Meetings
Contending in prayer
Regular gatherings devoted to intercession for our generation, our nations, and the church.
Outreach & Service
Love in action
Serving communities with compassion — because the gospel meets people in their real lives.
Community
Not walking alone
A growing network of young people encouraging one another between conferences and programs.
