Each summer, 220, the youth ministry of Bethany, hosts one of the most dynamic youth ministry conferences in the country. This is a time for young people and pastors alike to come together to receive vision, strategy, and training for youth ministry.
Although each year powerful speakers are invited to minister, 220conference has practical workshops during the afternoon taught by leaders on the frontline of youth ministry. You will be refreshed in the morning sessions, trained in the afternoon workshops, and ignited by revival fire in the evening services.
The 220conference began in 2002 with "Unstoppable Force." Then in 2003 everyone got in the groove with "The New Move" youth conference. In 2004, we challenged everyone to win "One More Soul!" After growing each year since its inception, the conference more than doubled to 4,000 in attendance for "Radical by Nature" in 2005. Over 5,000 young people gathered in 2006 to make a "Declaration" of Revolution. At the Declaration '06 conference, Revolution09 was unveiled to bring a moral and spiritual revolution to our country. At the 2007 220conference passionate young people were unleashed to turn the world "UpSideDown!" In 2008, we are counting down to a revival that will hit our nation like a hurricane storm!
This conference will encourage the strongest youth leader and deliver the most hard- hearted young person. Thousands have been saved at this conference, and lives of pastors and youth workers have been forever changed each year during our youth pastors' sessions.
