October 10, 2023 @ 5:30 pm - 9:00 pm

Tuesday, October 10, 2023
5:30-9:00 PM
Weems Creek Baptist Church
600 N. Bestgate Rd., Annapolis, MD
 
It’s that time of year! Join us for the 2023 Youth Summit! This year we’re excited to host two of our favorite fellow state convention experts! Jay Barbier from Tennesse and Matt Flanagan from Kentucky will guide us through an evening of training, discussion, and networking.
 
Jay will be speaking about tending to your personal growth by following simple steps that can help change the course of every person and family to focus on discipleship. He’ll share what it looks like to have a personal or family altar to help lay the foundation of devotion, how discipling your own children or students happens when you walk with Jesus in your everyday life, and how accountability must be at the forefront of our lives through honesty and vulnerability. You will hear the heart of Jay as a husband, father, and minister!
 
Matt will be speaking on essential ministry strategies for middle and high school students to reverse the trend of young adults leaving the local church.
 
We’ll also have a panel Q&A after dinner! Make plans to bring anyone who works with students in your church for an evening of learning, discussion and networking!
 
Cost: $10
Includes dinner
