Awakening Conference 2012 Annouces Speakers In Its Mission To Impact And Equip New England Teens
SMITHFIELD, Rhode Island- Awakening Conference registration is now open to the three day event which will feature speakers including Rich Jr. and DawnCherè Wilkerson, Chris Hill, Chad Veach, Adam McCain among others soon to be announced.
Online, January 22, 2012 (Newswire.com) - The Awakening Conference was birthed out of local church, New Life, as a resource to help local churches grow and sustain their youth ministries.
New Life Youth Director Jordan Boyce said, "A few years back, I just didn't see anything in the local Rhode Island area that would meet teens where they were in terms of the issues and struggles they had and help them by trying to make a significant impact in shaping who they would become. The annual Awakening Conference was created as we realized that we could reach the New England area to equip young people to walk out their faith in God and that we could also give youth pastors tools to help these kids to stay on track."
In its inaugural year, Awakening Conference reached a couple hundred people and last year, over fourteen hundred people were in attendance. Teens can choose from multiple speaking sessions and youth pastors are encouraged to attend leadership sessions to revitalize their efforts and give them tools to take back home to their youth programs.
The Awakening Conference is open to kids ages 12 and up. Tickets are $49.00 until March 4th and $59.00 afterwards. Registration is available online at or by calling 401.232.5200. To learn more visit the Web site, Awakening Conference on Facebook and on Twitter.
Now also reaching those outside the New England region, Canadian youth pastor Sylvain Brochu said of the Awakening Conference, "Last year we brought our entire youth group down to the Awakening Conference because we don't have anything like this in our area. It revitalized our youth pastors and it radically changed the lives of our teens as they encountered God and their faith became real, maybe for the first time. It's a powerful time."
