On February 25th - 27th, over 20 of our youth and leaders will be attending Open Bible's youth conference, Elevate. The event takes place at the Doubletree Hilton in Columbus, Ohio where over 500 students and leaders come together for this life changing event. February 18th has been set as a day of prayer and fasting by Elevate director Pete Freeman for all Eastern Region Open Bible Churches. Pray that students from Harvestland and from across the Eastern Region will have a life changing experience that will deepen their relationship with Christ forever!

Here is a brief message from the EleVate director & staff:
We’ve all heard the Cliché that a picture is worth a thousand words. At this year’s
Elevate we want to challenge our students that a relationship with Christ is louder
than words. When you read the story of Jesus in the Bible, you see a man who
showed His love for people in a way that was more than just talk, and that love is still
strong today.

1 John 3:18 says, “…let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.”
That’s the picture our world needs to see. The world around us needs to see Christian’s living a faith that’s louder than words, giving them a picture of who God really is. Join us at Elevate to find out how.

As Elevate 2010 is approaching you have an extraordinary opportunity to bring your youth to a life changing event that features one of the most popular speakers I have ever had at a Eastern Region youth event, Kyle Rodgers. Kyle has a dynamic speaking style and at the same time is very relevant to this generation of students. You don’t want to miss out on this youth event!
