I actually sent the correct post to admin so they could see where it was first mentioned as the one you reported looked like it was Old Paths.

Sorry about that. I was trying to get the context in there. My bad.

Thanks to the ADMIN staff for taking care of this.

HOWEVER...I do recall MANY times when AFF has had similiar reflections on CAF!

What was done there??

hmmmm

I have attended the last 2 congresses as a staff member. I worked on the security detail at the hotels.

I would much rather attend a Youth Congress for the worship, mission, and innocence than a GC any day. No politics. Yes, it is different, but youth are always different.

Let me share some of the things I witnessed.

I saw a youth group carry several kids that were lost in the Spirit into the hotel where I was working.

The hotel staff fell in-love with the kids. I witnessed the hotel front desk clerk run out to hug a group of the kids and tell them that she would miss them when they left.

I apologized to the hotel staff for some of the loud talking and noise that the kids were making. The hotel security officer said that this was a break from the normal stuff they have to deal with like drugs, prostitutes, and drunks.

I am not young and the format of the conference is different, but different is not wrong or bad. ....it's relevant.

So, you used to be on CAF? Interesting....

I've been on since day 1. I remember ONE TIME something was said negatively. Perhaps I've got a bad memory. Perhaps you do, too.

Great post!

The congress of 10 years ago wouldn't appeal to young people today. The message doesn't change just the avenue in which it's presented!!
