Relentless : Pursuing God in Every Season

Kaden Seaford
Kasey Wyatt

MCHS Graduates

We are excited to offer this peer-led workshop, led by two students with former ties to 412 Youth Group. Both Kaden and Kasey were leaders within 412 Youth, often stepping up to help lead small groups, share testimonies, and even bringing the message at special services such as Camp Sunday and Youth Sunday. As they move into the next stages of their lives and look back over their time in MS/HS, they will offer valuable insights to students at what worked (and maybe didn’t work) as they strived to pursue God in all things as students.

We all know it’s easy to feel close to God at summer camp, but how do you pursue Him when you are back to the regular, everyday routine? In this workshop, Kaden and Kasey will break down practical, everyday habits to keep your faith on fire. It is important to be mindful of ways to connect with God daily, even when you're exhausted, busy, or overwhelmed by school and life.

Beyond the Surface : The Importance of Guarding Your Heart

Garrett Hunt

Youth Pastor - Faith Center Paducah

Garrett is currently the youth pastor at Faith Center of Paducah, Ky, where he answers his calling in ministry working with middle and high school students within the community. Garrett has an amazing testimony and testament to God’s amazing love, forgiveness, and power, which continues to spur his passion in bringing the gospel to our young people and throughout the world.

We all know life changes fast, especially for students. One day you are entering middle school and before you know it, you are graduating and heading off for college or the work force. Between the stress of school, the high points of victory, and the confusing valleys of doubt or waiting, it is easy for your faith to fluctuate with your circumstances. This workshop is designed to help students build a faith that lasts when life gets chaotic. Discover how to relentlessly pursue God through every shift in your schedule, emotions, and surroundings. You will leave equipped with practical, daily habits to anchor your soul, steady your prayer life, and maintain a burning passion for Jesus—no matter what season you find yourself in.

Youth Leader Think Tank

Open Discussion With Fellow Youth Leaders and Volunteers

We invite all youth leaders and volunteers to meet us in the gym while their students are in workshops. We will spend some time  getting to know each other and have an open floor to discuss challenges we face as youth leaders, encourage each other, and to throw around some ideas for future opportunities to spread the gospel throughout our community.
