Youth Advance is a 3 day God-Intoxicated, Bible-Soaked, Cross-Centered conference for students in middle school and high school and their parents. YA10 is about youth, parents, & youth leaders coming together to encounter & exalt Jesus Christ through worship in song with the youth advance band, life changing teaching from God's Word, powerful ministry times, & rich Biblical fellowship with one another. We also have plenty of time to glorify God by having some serious fun: basketball, volleyball, football, ropes course, indoor rock climbing, fully loaded game room, snack shop, outrageous games, giveaways, hanging out with friends-you get the idea! [Be prepared to be exhausted.] Last day to register & all balances due on Tuesday, February 16th, 2010. Youth Advance Online Registration! For Parents / Guardians / Children!
