For those of you that dont know I am currently volunteering as an event specialist for the Greater NY Battlecry. Before I go on and tell you more about that, many of you may be wondering what Battlecry (BC) is. ( Well the Greater NY Battlecry is a 2 day youth conference that confronts many issues that teens face in their everyday lives. The events speakers take these issues and challenge the young adults that attend to make better life choices. The speakers also challenge the teens to live a life that is pleasing to Christ. The event is not only for teens, there are sessions that are geared toward youth pastors and parents as well. Over all this conference uses many different forms of interactive content to compel teens to wake up and stand up for what they say they believe in.)
I am really excited because I am beginning to see the fruits of my labor. This past week I worked a ton of over time but I am so happy that I did. My call team and I collectively registered over 2,000 people for the BC event. We are currently a little over 1,000 registrations away from registering our base goal. But I am excited because management is talking about opening more sections for the conference.
This event means a lot to me because it was at this event that God showed me the areas in my life that I needed to give over to Him. It was also at this event that I grasped the meaning of "actions speak louder than words." Although I will not go into all of it right now I will say that the Lord has a funny way of doing things/ getting our attention.
The Greater NY BattleCry is going to be at the IZOD Center in the Meadowlands on April 16-17. The theme for this years conference is the Encounter. It is all about the Love of God. There is also going to be some great music artist at the event as well. Hilsong United, Canton Jones, Salvador, and Bishop Hezekiah Walker. The speakers for the event are going to be Ron Luce, Nick Vujicic, plus more to come. If you are in the NY area and are not busy register and come out to the BattleCry.
