Announcing our next Youth Pastor's Connection
Sept. 16, 2010 (Thursday)
Noon-3 p.m.
Northwest Conference Office
3106 S. 47th Ave
Minneapolis 55406 We want to invite you to join us for our first Youth Pastor's Connection
of the new school year. We look forward to re-connecting with you or extending
a special welcome to you if you are new with us.  We are also excited to have Rick Mattson joining us for training
this month. Rick is the former regional director for Intervarsity Christian
Fellowship in the state of Minnesota and recently was appointed as a national
apologist for IV. Rick is going to focus our attention on "Preparing Students
for Post-High School." Many Christian students become inactive in their
faith when they graduate, go off to college, enter the workforce or wander
through prolonged adolescents. Others thrive and grow! We'll explore together
getting students ready to serve God as missionaries in the postmodern
university or secular society. We hope you can join us! Bring a lunch! A time to connect
with, learn from & support one another!We meet for Youth Pastor's Connection at the NWC office on Thursdays
from Noon-3 p.m. This year's dates: 2010 Sept. 16, Oct. 14, Nov. 18 2011 Jan. 20, Feb. 17, March

Children, Youth & Family video
At the 2010 Northwest Conference Annual
Meeting we debuted a series of video segments designed to help our constituents
better understand and engage NWC ministry priorities.
One segment focuses on
Children, Youth & Family ministry throughout the conference. Several youth
pastors and children's pastors from NWC churches are highlighted in the video.
