CONVO 2010!

convo 2010
Memorial Day Weekend • May 29-31, 2010 • University of Puget Sound

CONVO is the biggest youth event of the year for our Annual Conference.  Hundreds of Senior High-aged Youth (grades 8-12) and adult youth workers will gather for three days of music, prayer, fun, learning and growth.

 We hope that both youth and adults will leave this event feeling recharged and better equipped to live as passionate disciples of Jesus Christ.    

We are very excited to invite you to another year of CONVO! The Bishop’s CONVOcation for High School students was first held in the Pacific Northwest Conference in 1976. This makes CONVO 2010 the 35th installment in a long line of largely successful events.  We pray that this year’s incarnation will be worthy of this legacy of excellent events.  Every year, planning for CONVO is coordinated by an excellent team of youth and supportive adults who have a passion and dedication to making this the best event it can be.  This year is no exception.

CONVO 2010 POSTER Registration materials are available for download below.  Scholarships for CONVO are available through the Conference Office (these forms are included in the registration packet).  Adult leaders for CONVO and all Conference Events must have a current National Background check on file in the Conference Office and be at least 4 years older than the oldest youth attending the event.

The CONVO theme this year is “Anatomy of a Christian.”  Together, we will explore how Christians are called to be thinking believers who experience God passionately, and live out their faith radically.  We are very excited to welcome Mark Yaconelli as our speaker this year.  Yaconelli is a respected expert and author on youth spirituality.  He is a gifted, engaging speaker who will connect with youth and adults alike.  You can learn more about everything that is happening in the linked materials below!

Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help you or your group as they plan to attend CONVO this year.

The Conference Council on Youth Ministries is a strong advocate and example of youth leadership in our Annual Conference. It is the group that is responsible for planning Senior High CONVO and the Middle School/Jr. High Retreats, among other things. This body elects officers: President, Vice-President, and Secretary at its Spring meeting in April.

Other members include two youth from each district and 1 adult from each district. There is also a youth who is the Chair of the Senior High ministries, a Chair of the Junior High/Middle School ministries, and a Chair of the Empowering Youth team. Other members of the CCOYM make up the membership of these teams. The selection of new District Representatives (as needed) will occur just prior to Annual Conference in June.

There are forms available (CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD) for youth wishing to run for office or wishing to let their District know of their willingness to serve as a District Representative on the CCOYM Team.
