SALT is an annual Youth Ministry leadership training event for youth and the adults who work with them. Hosted by Well-Seasoned Youth Ministry and the Raleigh Area YOWO (Youthworkers) group – bring your youth officers and adult volunteers for an afternoon of inspiration and equipping. This year we will be hosting two simultaneous events so pick the location closest to you:
White Plains UMC – 313 SE Maynard Rd. Cary NC, and Jarvis Memorial UMC – 510 S. Washington St. Greenville NC
Cost is $10 per person. Payment is due at check-in – checks may be written to WPUMC or JMUMC depending on location. The event is Sunday, August 14 from 4-7 PM – you are invited to go to dinner with your team before or after the event. Some light snacks will be served.
