This past Monday, Jan. 5, National Youth Conference (NYC) 2026 registration officially opened! The NYC staff is so excited for those that have registered so far and those who will continue to register in coming weeks. Find the registration link at www.brethren.org\/nyc<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

National Youth Conference will be held on July 18-23, 2026, at the YMCA of the Rockies in Estes Park, Colo. The theme is \u201cLight Within Us\u201d inspired by Matthew 5:14-16. Youth who have completed ninth grade through one year of college at the time of NYC (or are age equivalent) and their adult advisors are invited to attend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are diligently tracking all the registrants with our Lite Brite and are looking forward to the board being all filled up.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can\u2019t believe that we\u2019re already in the calendar year of NYC, and July will be here before we know it! In the coming weeks, we\u2019ll be announcing via social media exciting details like worship speakers, the service project, and worship coordinators. As we get closer to NYC, we\u2019ll be talking about things like workshops, late evening activities, and other helpful info.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t forget that the registration cost will increase by $25 on March 1 and by another $25 on May 1. Register early to save a little cash!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wishing you all the best in this new year and already excitedly anticipating this summer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
