UP-COMING EVENTS(THE ANNUAL YOUTH RETREAT)
We are pleased to announce that for The 2009 ETY Conference; the theme will
be: GREATER!
The scripture that will guide the programming is:
"Yours, O LORD, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory,
and the majesty; for all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours; yours
is the kingdom, O LORD, and you are exalted as head above all." 1 Chronicles
29:11
Don't Wait - Be Part of the Best ETY Ever!
About The 2009 ETY.
We live in the age of super-sizing. Everyone speaks of living large, getting the
most out of the moment, and seizing the day. But in teen culture, this
philosophy has led to a frenetic, fragmented approach to life where the driving
force of existence is stringing together one experience after another in hopes
of finding happiness. Teens are constantly driven to look for the next big
thing, the higher "high" or the greater thrill. But often, there is no real
consideration or contemplation for the purpose or meaning of their lives. Life
becomes empty and is reduced to nothing. In turn, God is reduced to nothing with
teens not really knowing who God is or what to believe.
But God is bigger. God is the ultimate. God is truly GREAT, and He reigns as
King of the Universe. His heart burns with a passionate, unconditional love for
each of us. It is this love that changes hearts, sets people free, and draws us
into deeper communion with the one who made us.
Jesus says in John 10:10, "I have come that they may have life and have it
abundantly." This "real life" is discovered only when we take our eyes off of
ourselves, the world, its false pleasures, its half-truths and give our hearts
completely to the Living God.
In 2009, we will be calling young people to tear down the facade the world has
thrown up in front of them. We will draw them into the presence of the God of
the Universe where they will see that God truly is GREAT, better than anything
else and living in their hearts through faith and Baptism.
We want to show them that God is not an experience but a journey. He is their
beginning, He is their end. And He is in all, through all and with all of them
as they journey through this life. And we want to call young people to make
Christ King of their hearts - where He can reign GREATER!
We hope to see you at This 1st Mega ETY conference!
God bless you!
