Almost 1000 people have registered and made their way to YouthQuest 2019. The event kicked off on Saturday, July 13th, at the Hyatt Regency on the riverfront in Jacksonville, FL.
This morning, registration opened with students dressed, prepped, and ready to perform. Students jumped right into Bible Quiz competition. They demonstrated, not only their knowledge, but a passion for the Bible in events like Quoting Bee, Power Play, and Bible Bowl.
The afternoon hit the ground running as students participated in a variety of categories including Vocal/Instrumental Ensemble, Vocal/Instrumental Solo, Song Writing, Worship Dance, Praise Dance, Short Sermon, and Traditional Photography.
All of this led up to a powerful opening night service. Back for another year, The Well worship band led the attendees in anointed worship, and the #YQ19 speaker, Casey Doss, brought a challenging message centered around the story of Bartimaeus. Erica Campbell, Womens’ Ministries board member and part of The Awakening, led a prayer for the congregation for radical generosity.
Josh Kestner, part of the Student Ministry Advisory Team, will be speaking in our Morning Session, July 14th, at 9am. You can check it out on our IPHC Student Ministries Facebook Page or click here.
