National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Anybody attending the UPC National Youth Congress August 5-7 in Nashville?

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

One of the Sisters here is going. She is our youth Pastor

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

A female Youth Pastor????????

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Yeah....something wrong with that?

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Family's already there! With a side trip to the ancestral manse in Arkansas.

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

There are 12 from our church going. They have been working so hard together
with projects to earn their money to go to Youth Congress. One precious little
elderly sister, seeing how hard they were working, donated 1,000.00. She loves
and loves on our youth. She is so faithful, has been here and watched some of
these kids grow up and she encourges them. She is 89! Still investing in the
future of the church. Her daugher, recently prayed back through after being
away from God for many years.

GOD Bless the 2009 Youth Congress and watch over every young person and
the adult chaparons attending with them. God bless eveyone coming and going,
in JESUS NAME!

I'll be attending one evening service. :)

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

I have been thinking about doing the same although I am a bit over the age limit! I was hoping if some AFFers were going to be there maybe we could all meetfor a cup of coffee. I have a feeling that unless they are going as chaperones most of our AFF friends would have children going rather than themselves.

Of course the ultra cons aren't going to let their kids get near those evil big video screen and they willl have gone to the PEAK conference a little while ago.

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Four of our handsome grandsons are going. The Youth pastor and wife, and
another couple who have a son going. We have some wonderful young people
who are dedicated and consecrated to God. Not just when they go some-
where else. It began at home!

Falla39,

Sounds like you have a great group going. I hope they have a great time. I remember as a teenager going to the very first National Youth Congress. I beleive it was held in Memphis. I had a great time. That would have been the late 1970's.

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

My daughter wants me to go with her. Mrs. Steinway won't be going because she doesn't want to make a spectacle with her short hair style.

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Tennessee! Can't you guys get "Apostolic" right?

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Our heathern Jezebel wives are doing the right thing by staying away from functions like these! They won't be tempting any of those young women to bob their hair and paint their faces.

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Yes, it's very complicated here in Tennessee! :D

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

We have 18 driving down in 2 church vans, from Portland, Maine, leaving Sunday after church. Going to spend a couple days in Gatlinburg, then over to Nashville. If you see that contingent, led by my son Phil Jr. and our youth leaders, Amy and Jesse Morin, please introduce yourselves. God bless and have a great time!

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

I will be praying they have a safe and blessed trip.

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Thank you very much CC1, I covet the prayers of all for a safe and fun journey.

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

CC1 Why are you so negative on PEAK? Why not just stick with speaking good about the upcoming NYC. The kids that went to PEAK are genuine in their realtionship with God. They really don't need to get on an Apostolic FriendsForum and read deragatory comments about a wonderful experience they had in God from someone who is suppose to be Apostolic. I'm UPC but I think it is wrong to slam someone else who believes the same message as we do. Let's learn to bless one another. Love.

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

More young people soaking up what God has for them!!! Pray they get a double-portion of what the L&T children and teens received at their camp/conference. They need all they can get before school kicks in - just a refreshing to keep them reminded of how powerful God is!!!! Blessings to the PEAK leaders and all attending!!!

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Please explain how I am "so negative on PEAK"? It is a fact that one of the issues the conservatives who broke off to form the World Wide Wrestling Pentecostal Fellowship had with the UPC Youth functions was that they utiziled video for image magnification and presentations.

I did not disparage PEAK in any way and I am sure there were many great Pentecostal young people at that meeting.

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

I'll be there. It's my job to stay up all night and make sure those young apostolic's stay safe and out of trouble!

:ursofunny

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Our youth group is going and our quizzers are already there.

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

I missed the negative post as well???

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Well? :foottap

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Now Prax, you know good and well that I don't believe in women Preachers. You are just trying to stir the pot!

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Hannah's going to be there! This will be her first year. :thumbsup

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

We have a whole bus load of youth from our church going.
We've got a wonderful youth group! I wish I could sneak in with them.

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Just read this... so proud of our quizzers!!

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Does her mama realize there will be thousands of boys there also? LOL

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

I'm not really worried. You should have seen the cold shoulder she gave quite a few admirers at camp. LOL!!!! Three different boys carried her suitcases to the car when I picked her up, with nary a "Thank you" or even a warm glance in their direction from Hannah.

She's not into them quite yet. :D

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Bro. CC1, I have been watching and waiting for an updated picture of
your little granddaughter and just saw this one. She is a little doll. I know
you and Mrs. CC1 have so much fun with her. We have so enjoyed our
20 grands, and now the eldest grandchild, who is 26 yrs old today, and
his wife are expecting our first GREAT-grandchild. Life is going from Grand
to GREAT and we are excited! How blessed we are.

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Thanks! The previous avatar was her at either a few hours or one day old. This latest one is at 10 months old. It was taken about 5 weeks ago. She is an absolute doll.

She gets so excited with the simple things in life like a balloon. You would think someone handed her a million bucks. I just wish the pic were of enough quality for you to see how blue her beautiful eyes are.

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

She'll grow up to be a great preacher some day :thumbsup

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

CC1, I think Darcie is going to be there.

My brother and family are coming through here tomorrow on their way there; they're staying at my folks for a couple days before they head to Nashville. I'm going to go over Tuesday and spend some time with them. I don't know if he's preaching at the Youth thingy, or just going.

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

This past week I was in Jackson, TN on business and had to drive from there to the Mobile, AL area. I went down US45 that I have never driven down before and lo and behold before you know it I saw a Loving Spoonful church on the right!! I then started looking closely at signs and eventually saw something that said "Adamsville". I realized I had passed where Eddie used to pastor before moving to Jackson.

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

What, pray tell, is this??? (I'm familiar with the band)

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

HAHAHA - it's what he calls our church (churches). It's actually Love & Truth Church.

CC1 - what you saw was Love & Truth Henderson, TN. If you were on the Bypass in Jackson earlier, you were within about two blocks of our main church here. NEXT TIME, CALL!!! (Of course I was in San Francisco this week, but Eddie was here!)

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Great!!!
Glad to hear you all are starting a branch work in SF!!!!

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

I would have called but I arrived in Jax the night before about 5:30 pm then had to work in the hotel until about 7 pm before going to dinner with a pretty woman...er....business associate. Then had to leave at 8 am the next morning.

Hopefully next time we can get together for a cup of coffee or someting. I would love to see you guys since it has been a couple of years. I have made the gooey cake several times since then!

Re: National Youth Congress Nashville Aug 5-7
 

Driving up for the last night from ATL friday. Our Youth group will be there the whole time.
