Sponsor a non-USA CP to CPYC and PYT

Dear Youth Ministry Friends:

Youth conferences have a significant impact in the lives and spiritual development of young people. The Cumberland Presbyterian Youth Conference and Presbyterian Youth Triennium will provide opportunities for youth and adult workers with youth to have such experiences. It is our hope to enable youth from the church globally to participate and share in these experiences. Since these events are held in the USA, youth from other countries often do not have the same opportunity or adequate resources to attend. No young person should be prevented from attending a denominational event because of distance and cost. Therefore, the DMT is pleased to invite you to partner with us in supporting at least 2 youth from our non-USA presbyteries to attend CPYC and PYT.  Pooling our resources together we can make a difference, providing for travel and registration costs.

Some of you have met, sponsored or even hosted our global partners in the past and you know first-hand of the significance of this ministry.  Not only are relationships established and these young people's concept of church expanded, but youth in the USA experience a culture and tradition quite different and unique. The exchange and interaction that occurs is priceless. Please consider giving to this ministry?

The registration fee of the Cumberland Presbyterian Youth Conference is $325.00 per participant. The registration fee of Presbyterian Youth Triennium is $409 per participant Travel costs will vary depending on location and distance.  We are joining with the Missions Ministry Team in an effort to bring at least 8 young people to the USA to attend these events and share cross culturally in a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

 

Financial support is one means of sharing in this ministry.  Another is serving as host to one or more of these young people who outside the USA.

If you, your congregation or presbytery are able to assist, please contact me, Susan Groce, at scg@cumberland.org or 901-276-4572 ext. 218. Checks may be made payable to Cumberland Presbyterian Church and noted "Global Partners" in the memo section and sent to: CPC, Attn: Susan Groce, 8207 Traditional Place, Cordova, TN 38016.

Your prayerful consideration is greatly appreciated.

Susan Groce, Coordinator of Ministries with Youth and Young Adults
