More than three dozen youth in representative leadership of the NC Conference, along with adult leaders, gathered for worship, communion, and business on September 16.
The youth worked on several things:
- The Youth Service Fund (YSF) Task Force agreed upon merchandise, which will be available for purchase at Pilgrimage and online.
- The Communications Committee worked on connecting and representing the voice of the youth. Follow Youth Ministries on Instagram and Facebook.
- The Resolutions Committee began working on resolutions for next year. All youth in the Conference are welcome to submit ideas for resolutions to youth@nccumc.org.
Other business to share:
- CCYM approved $75,000 for disaster relief.
- Pilgrimage registration is open. There will be a meeting to brainstorm fundraising ideas for Pilgrimage 2024 on Saturday afternoon of Pilgrimage 2023.
- CCYM representatives will be reaching out to local church pastors. Local pastors, be on the lookout for communications from the representatives.
At the end of the meeting, the youth had the opportunity to meet with the CCYM from the Western NC Conference, and the leadership invited each other to events.
