Texas Regional Youth Conference 2012

The Texas Regional Youth Conference committee is happy to launch our website, http://makingadifference2012.com. Please check this site for complete information about our youth conference on Saturday, April 21, 2012, 1:00 to 9:00 PM, at Seventh Church of Christ, Scientist, Houston. That website has all the details: who, when, where, why, what, cost, and how to register to attend.

The primary audience is young adults, from high school age through 35. We want to encourage and inspire young adults to feel the love of our Father-Mother God. And feeling that love, to learn how Christian Science blesses our lives, relationships, careers, and enables us to make a difference in the world. Whether our understanding is mustard seed sized or a fully rooted tree, each participant will learn how to grow and progress.

The evening session adds a special secondary audience, “youth supporters” over 35. Featuring a talk on supporting youth, it also includes dinner and a concert. Adults who love and are engaging with youth may register to join the primary youth audience during this evening session. Adult registrants could include camp and/or professional counselors, school teachers (Sunday school and school), mentors, youth workers, Scout leaders, parents and grandparents, etc. Youth supporters can bring healing ideas from the conference to our families, churches, schools, and camps to “make a difference.”

This is not a day of regular lectures. Underlying these special conference activities is the knowledge that long time church members already know the value of living Christian Science. This day is an opportunity to support and engage youth.

As you pray to support this conference, please consider:

· Inviting young adults, from high school through 35, to register by sharing the conference website, http://makingadifference2012.com.

· Assisting young adults with travel expenses.

· Donating to: Texas Regional Youth Conference, Attn: Jeff Bell, Treasurer, 635 Ramblewood Rd., Houston, TX 77079

Remember, all participants must register online at http://makingadifference2012.com, which has complete conference information now. Registering early by March 21, 2012 saves 50%.
