Empowered.

Before Jesus ascended into heaven, He gave his disciples and us some of His last words. Embedded in Acts 1:8 is a plan, our purpose and the promise of God’s presence.

For almost 60 years the International Wesleyan Youth Convention has gathered thousands of students and their leaders for a time of worship, equipping, connection and fun. This year we will be back in Cincinnati, OH and our theme is EMPOWERED, drawn from some of Jesus’ last words to His disciples. We will have time to focus on each students unique calling with the desire to send them back to their communities to make and multiply disciples in their context. This year we will also have a young adult track for those ages 18-30 as well as a leader track for those who bring their students, serve as a lay leaders or hold positions their local church, district and/or university. Gather your team and make your way to Cincinnati to join us.
