Elevate Student Conference 23'
August 11th-13th
Elevate Student Conference is our Back-To-School weekend retreat. From Friday evening through Sunday morning students will be immersed in scripture, fellowship, and fun. On the Friday and Saturday nights, they'll sleep at host homes of members of the church. This is an excellent event for new and current students to build relationships with each other, with their Elevate leaders, and (the ultimate goal) with Jesus.
Who: 7th-12th grades (12-18 y/o)
When: August 11th-13th
Where: Living Word Church, Host Homes, and Adventure Quest New Orleans
How Much: $50 per student
Deadline for registration: Aug. 9th
What: ESC23 emphasizes scripture, building community, and preparing students for the school year. We'll have 3 sessions on the Beatitudes of Jesus. We'll spend Saturday afternoon playing laser tag, putt putt golf, bumper cars, a human maze, and arcade games. Finally, it'll wrap up with attending Sunday morning service together at Living Word Church.
Why: Our theme is "Blessed" from Matthew 5:3-6 on the upside down kingdom of Jesus. The word "blessed" which Jesus uses is literally "happy." But not the kind of happy that comes with an LSU win or a snow cone. The kind of deep joy that's found in living for Christ. But how can being "poor in spirit," "mourning," becoming "meek," or "hungering and thirsting" make happy Christians? Tell your student to take notes!
Keynote Speakers:
* Pastor Ben Bufkin (Our pastor at Living Word Church)
* Dominick Farone (Youth Pastor at LWC)
* Pastor Kevin Celestin (Pastor at FBC Thibodeaux)
