The V.O.I.C.E National Youth Fest 2018 organized by Forerunner AG National Youth Ministries returns this year for the fourth time at a new venue. This year’s youth conference and night rallies will be held at the Stein Studio complex in Ratmalana from August 23-25, 2018. The theme this year is “Greater Glory” and Forerunner AG National Youth Ministries along with other denomination churches come together for the purpose of uniting Christian youth spread across the nation.
The trilingual leadership confer- ence this year expects more than 1,000 youth leaders from all denominations to come together in an effort to empower the future of our nation to bring positive change. The two-day conference will feature sessions conducted by Director, Christ for the Nations Institute & Youth for the Nations Chris Estrada from Dallas, Texas, Director, Director of Youth Alive SA Sam Long, the Youth Alive Band from Australia and prominent youth leaders from Sri Lanka.
Sessions during the day will focus on educating youth on their role in influencing society in the forms of plenary sessions and group discussions which will also feature stories of people who have transformed society through sport, business, entertainment and philanthropy. V.O.I.C.E also encourages the youth i to stand up against Violence, Oppression, Injustice, and Crime while Engaging themselves in positive change.
Each evening, the Youth Alive band together with local church bands will perform at a night rally open to the public. In previous years, the night rallies drew more than 4,000 youth and young adults together with their families each night. This year the organizers expect that number to increase as well.
