Youth Conference =Switch On 2015= Switched Youth On!

11.10.2015 Youth Conference =Switch On 2015= Switched Youth On!

On October, 9 and 10 in The Light of Life Church (Poltava) creative Christian Youth Conference "Switch On 2015" took place. It is held annually to encourage young people not only to dream, but to act as well: to set goals and build plans, "to draw" a vector of one’s ministry and to be included in God's vision.

To participate in this big event of the year young people from 30 churches in 20 towns and cities of Ukraine came together.

Within the framework of the conference the famous Christian youth bands and special guests led the youth in praise and worship. It was “Meoritband” (Lutsk), the winner of the contest " Song of the Year in the Ukrainian Christianity - 2014", legendary super band "The Cry of the Soul" (Kiev ), Worship band “Light Up” (Poltava), Dance Theatre “White City” (Sumy), a group of "Host" (Poltava), Youth Worship Band “Zavet” (Kremenchug), Christian author and singer Maxim Varfolomeev and Children's Worship Band “Firefly”  :)

During the conference the youth listened to speakers who had the common vision of "Switch On". Sergey Okhrimenko spoke that youth should be included in the life of the church and be active in the service of God and people. Pastor of The Light of Life Church Dimitry Laptev appealed to the youth with a prophetic word about the necessity to be influential and how to use the God-given resources and develop oneself in various fields. Pastor Natalia Laptev shared testimony of her life and her example of sacrificial service to God. Minister from Kremenchug Eugene Utkin talked about how to be effective in ministry and keep the fire for the Lord, and pastor Eugene Antonets preached on the theme "Vector of service".

On the second day of the conference the youth had the opportunity to attend master classes and listen to the following topics: the preaching of the Gospel in the Internet from the team of yesHEis missionary of Yuriy Kavun and Eugene Rusan (Kyiv), the organization of effective programs to reach young people from the creative director of The Light of Life Church Lyudmila Okhrimenko (Poltava), dance hip-hop from choreographer and director of the Dance Theatre «White City" Natalia Brilliant (Sumy).

More than 200 young people from all over Ukraine came to this conference to be refreshed, to get a new vision and inspiration from the Lord. This demonstrates the genuine interest of young people to spiritual growth, meeting and communication with young people from other churches and cities, to the development of youth ministry and active preaching the Gospel.

Two amazing days were rich with live dynamic music, bright lights, cool Christian fellowship, surprises and gifts, unique creativity and positive – all those super stuff created the atmosphere of joy, when the Holy Spirit in a special way touched the hearts of young people, challenging them "to switch on" and awaken to achieve God's goals.

The key message of the conference is expressed in the slogan: "Do not live in an eternal waiting mode, switch yourself on!" – it was a very thought which soaked the whole conference "Switch On 2015".
