Our Spring All City Youth Night was an incredible success, bringing together over 100 students from half a dozen churches across the area. The church was completely transformed into a space full of fun, excitement, and connection. It was powerful to see so many different groups come together as one, united around a shared purpose and a night of unforgettable experiences.
The building was packed with activities that had something for everyone. From bounce houses and archery to laser tag, karaoke, and a wide variety of board and group games, students had endless ways to jump in and be part of the action. Laughter, friendly competition, and high energy filled every corner of the space. The event was from 7:00pm to 11:00pm and if we had let them they might have stayed all night… but Adam is too old for that!
At the heart of the night was a meaningful challenge: to take part in “Proud Christian Day.” Students were encouraged to boldly live out their faith by wearing their Proud Christian shirts to school and using them as a starting point for gospel conversations with their peers. It was incredible to see that vision come to life just days later, as students all across Hancock County showed up to school wearing their shirts, taking real steps to live out and share their faith in everyday life.
This event also served as the perfect kickoff to our upcoming summer All City Youth gatherings. We’re excited to continue building on this momentum with events at the YFC building across from the Red Auction Barn on Trenton Avenue on Sunday, June 7 and July 26 at 6:00pm. If this night was any indication, there’s so much more to come, and we can’t wait to see how God continues to move through these gatherings.
