SUMMARY:Hispanic/Latino Youth Camp
DESCRIPTION:Who Do You Say I Am? (Matthew 16:15)\nDear Pastors/Youth Directors\, \nWe are so excited to invite you and your youth group to this year’s youth camp. This year we will base our retreat on the scripture found in Matthew 16:15. Our desire is that all youth can experience the presence of God during this time. This year we will have multiple speakers to lead our youth both in God’s word and in worship. \nCost: $70 per student \nAges: 12 – 21 years old (we ask that each youth group comes with chaperone as well.) \nRemember that with 7 students\, a youth director or chaperone comes in for free. \nWe will also have some friendly competition this year where your church will have an opportunity to take some trophies back home. We will have an art piece competition where we ask that the entire youth group from your church can work together to make a masterpiece. This piece has to have the theme of Matthew 16:15. We will also have a Bible trivia based on the whole chapter 16 of Matthew\, so study up. We will have some awesome workshops with topics that focus on our youth. \nThese Workshops will be provided: \n\nThe Heart of a Worshiper – Esteban Rodas\nLive out Your Singleness/Dating God’s Way – Joshua Saucedo\nWhy on Earth am I Here For!? – Hector Saucedo \nCall to Lead – Eli Martinez\n\nHope to see you there this year. \nBlessings\, \nPastor Eli & Sarah Martinez

Dr. Leroy Barber\, a member of the Greater Northwest Area Innovation Vitality Team\, will help us explore how we navigate the great journey of life especially as we work through times of uncertainty and trouble. We will explore how God’s love and faith keep us steadfast and give us hope even during the storms and trials of life. \nEvery year\, Convo is planned 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. We’ve been hosting this “Bishop’s Youth Convocation” for over 40 years and we are praying for a weekend where both youth and adults are equipped and recharged to live as passionate disciples of Jesus Christ. \nConvo Dance theme this year is THROWBACK! Whether it’s suits and ties of the 1920s or the vibrant workout fits of the 80s\, everyone has their favorite retro style. Throwback and represent your favorite decades at this fun\, time-warp of a dance. \nWho Can Go?\nConvo is for youth currently in grades 6 – 12 and their adult leaders. We ask churches to send one adult\, who has completed a national background check\, to accompany every 1- 6 youth of each gender. We will try to accommodate youth in cases where this isn’t possible. Cost is $175 for all retreat participants both youth and adults. We do offer a discount to those who are leading workshops or small groups.
