Full time? Part time? Volunteer? Paid? Underpaid? If you're a Youth Worker of any kind, have we got professional development for YOU?

About the event: To cover the many aspects of youth ministry, our program offers several unique levels of training. Participants who complete the four tracks will be offered Region 2 recognition.

We have intentionally planned this event to overlap with Invitation to Service so that you can bring youth and young adults along who are ready to explore their vocation as a Christian and the possibility of ministry in the Church.
