The National Institute for the Development of Ministries to Youth, a ministry of CE National, is hosting the annual Youth Emphasis Week at Grace College this coming week, March 27-29, 2007.
During the week students are exposed to the needs of youth in our culture and are encouraged to consider youth ministry on a vocational or volunteer level. The theme for this year is “Youth Ministry: Culture and the Gospel.”
Monday at 9 p.m. there will be a large hang-out/get-together/party-time with free pizza at CE National’s Russell Center. Pastor Scott Distler, from Grace Church in Lititz, Pennsylvania, will speak, and he will also be the speaker for the Tuesday morning chapel service at Grace.
Wednesday, Pastor Scott Greene from Warsaw Community Church will speak. He is then going to speak on Wednesday night for two sessions/seminars that are open to the public at the Russell Center at 9 p.m. and 10 p.m.
Thursday morning will showcase a newcomer to TNI: Josh Finklea. Josh is a pastor/speaker from Illinois. His focus will be on challenging the students to evangelism. Sound Investment, Grace College’s traveling music ministry team, will be leading music all week.
Timothy Kurtaneck, Director of TNI, has coordinated guests and events for the week. For more information, contact Courtney Cherest at 574-267-6622 or theinstitute@cenational.org.
