5.  For young delegates and leaders in Chicago, can they commute?

• This Congress has been strategically designed for the young delegates to  connect, network and build community together in a retreat settting.  The goal is for young delegates and church leadership to bond and establish deep and intimate relationships by coming and staying together at the hotel.  So, we're encouraging everyone to 'come away for awhile' and take time to build a community together.   

1. Through AIM (Adventist Information Ministry), we contacted 503 churches and 287 pastors.

5. You can also see the 16 churches "blinking" with delegates by going to our PointsMap.

6. There are only 100 seats per conference for this Congress.  We pray that God will continue to work on the hearts of the local church leadership to connect and support the young delegates for this Congress.  

It wasn't until the "douter boy" believed that he was able to hear the sleigh bells ring and see Santa Claus with his own eyes.

It wasn't until the Israelites stepped into the Jordan River that the river parted and appeared a dry ground.    

The lesson is clear.

As the year of 2012 comes to a close, we need to believe to see the miracle God has in store for us for the year of 2013.  

Let us Finish Strong and Expect Great Things for the 2013 LUC Youth Evangelism Congress.
