Momentum Youth Conference
Life-Changing Sessions
Hands-On Ministry
Momentum is an annual, national youth conference for students in 6th-12th grade. We are about connecting youth to God, helping them to understand where they belong in God’s kingdom and how they can know God’s purpose for their lives. Momentum Youth Conference creates an atmosphere conducive to learning, listening, serving, and following Jesus.
Students come to this experience expecting to encounter God, to be challenged in their faith, to learn and be reminded of truth from God's Word, to strengthen their relationships with their youth group and peers, and to have lots of fun!

Hand & Heart Impact
In all of our partnerships we strive for a “hand and heart” impact.
Hand: We work with our hands and accomplish a task that serves people and shows them that we care.
Heart: We talk with whoever we can as we serve or before and after with the intention to share the Gospel and plant seeds.
We teach simple acronyms and methods in main sessions to help students know how to start conversations and simply share the hope that they have.
Got Talent
Students enter MGT by submitting a video of themselves performing or a photo of physical artwork to be judged.
As Momentum goes on the road in 2021, from those entries, several Momentum’s Got Talent entries will be featured on Momentum's Instagram and Facebook.

Why Momentum Starts Here
Momentum On The Road will offer sessions, in-depth breakout tracks, afternoon fun options, hands-on ministry in each MOTR location.
Students meet peers from other churches and they grow tremendously in their relationships within their own youth group.
Momentum sets the stage for your youth group going into the school year. It’s not just a “mountain top experience,” it’s a launching point designed to help your group build momentum for the rest of your year.
Momentum Youth Conference
When students serve together at Momentum with their local youth group it helps them see that ministry can be done in their own communities when they return home.
Each night includes a “youth group time” when leaders debrief with their students about what they experienced that day in sessions, power tracks, ministry, etc. Youth pastors tell us this is one of their favorite times at Momentum – processing all that God is doing with their students.
Groups are housed together per gender in dorms which creates a great atmosphere for groups to bond. Housing and meals are on the same campus as afternoon events, sessions, seminars, etc. which allows youth workers to spend more time with their students and less time with logistics of meals and transporting their groups.
You’ll always be able to find something to do and fun interaction between students at Momentum!
