WHAT IS 252?

An epic gathering of students in the northwest from around the world!

This is not just another event; it’s an encounter of immeasurable proportion. It is a movement; a rallying of this generation, a rallying of His team (Team CHURCH)- on purpose, for a purpose. It is an empowering of this generation to radically impact the world around them.

 

The name 252 is based off of Luke 2:52 (And Jesus grew in wisdom, in stature, in favor with God, and favor with man). It is our goal through this conference to equip this generation to effectively impact all areas of their life & to change the culture that we live in!

 

This conference includes 3 days of action packed fun, competitions, new & old friends, dynamic speakers, out of this world worship, God encounters, and an overall experience that will never be forgotten.

 

  WHO IS THIS FOR? Grades 6-12
  WHEN IS THIS EVENT? August 2-4 2010

 

We’ll see you in August!

Samuel, Jodi, Todd

What are other youth pastors saying about 252?

 

Corey Hamilton - WA, USA

Our youth ministry had not grown for a few years prior to attending the 252 youth conference. The 252 conference was like nothing we'd ever been a part of and transformed our students, leaders, and ministry. The passion, fire, and excitement we had after the 252 conference was so powerful that we more than tripled our youth ministry within a few months. No event had a bigger impact on our ministry than the 252 conference!

 

Nathan & Tiffany Holland - WA, USA- Covington Christian Fellowship

I have been bringing my youth group out to the 252 conference for years now. Our youth look forward to this event every summer. They love the energy and the atmosphere of the meetings. The games are fun, the worship is genuine, and the messages are relevant. I love hearing back from them what God was showing them at this conference, and seeing the change in them. It is one thing to know that God knows what your students need to hear, it is a completely different thing to see it happen. For me personally, one of the things that I love about this conference is that it is just as much for me as it is for my group. I can sit back and listen to great speakers from all over the world, while at the same time knowing that my students are being taken care of. I can network with other youth pastors and hear what they are going through and see how they are working through common struggles. It is a great conference, and has personally impact me and my youth group.

 

Jake and Theresa Sutherland

My wife and I, after we graduated from WFL, moved to England to work as youth pastors at a great church. When we got there we quickly realized that the experience of church was different than ours. And so we started going to work sharing vision to the 10 young people that were there. The youth ministry began to grow but there was still something missing. We took 20 young people to 252 conference that year and they got to see it for themselves. A youth ministry that was cool and full of energy. A youth ministry that was changing the community and changing lives. They came back on fire and it has never been the same. Now the youth ministry averages 200 people and lives are forever changed. That is our 252 conference experience.

 

Ryan & Lisa Gano - New Beginnings Church - Everett WA, USA

When I first went to 252 I didn't have a clue what to expect. I had never been to Champions Centre before. I was blown away! The presence of God was so powerful. The commitment to excellence was incredible! I was learning things about youth ministry that I had never even realized I needed to know :) We didn't take any students with us the first time, but I bought ten tickets for the following year and we've been a part of 252 ever since. It is exciting to have my students asking me about it and telling their friends about the great things that happen at 252. If you haven't been I strongly recommend you take as many people with you as possible. You won't be disappointed
