IMPORTANT NOTE: If you sign up for a YMI Module, this will be your only Workshop; it will begin at 1 p.m. and end at 5 p.m.
a. MODULE I – “Foundations For Youth Ministry Led by Judy Orecchio

(Each participant will receive a recently published Youth Ministry Resource
Book and a gift bag of useful ‘goodies!’)
#2 “A CAN OF SODA AND A PAIR OF SOCKS” Andrew McClure
from URBAN PEAK
Andrew McClure is a young man whose life was turned around by persons at Urban
Peak, and now he is one of those persons who is helping young people to do
the same. Come and hear Andrew’s story . . . it’s an AMAZING one!
NOTE: At each Rocky Mountain Conference Youth Event, your Conference Council on Youth Ministry (CCYM) chooses a Project (or Projects) to which we donate monies raised from our Youth Service Fund (YSF) Fundraisers.
URBAN PEAK is the organization they have chosen for monies raised at REJUVENATION. YSF is a Fund with monies raised ‘by Youth; for Youth,” and Urban Peak fits that perfectly!
