Mission
To join Youth and Young Adults in the Lake Union Conference to be inspired, trained,
and resourced to use their lives to share the good news of the
Kingdom of God.
Vision
“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of
the Father and of the Son and the Holy Spirit.”
Matthew 28:19
Since 2013, hundreds of senior youth and young adults ages 16-35 in the Lake Union Conference gathered together every other year with pastors, youth directors, ministerial directors, Conference presidents, and Union administrators to be empowered and resourced for evangelism back in their local churches and communities. As a result, through these years, we had young adult leaders using a total of 515,872 dollars from a joint evangelism fund built by LUC, local Conferences, and the local churches to launch new evangelism projects. The goal was the same in every case: to bring the gospel to their local community through a total of 107 evangelism projects.
“With such an army of workers as our youth, rightly trained, might furnish, how soon the message of a crucified, risen, and soon-coming Saviour might be carried to the whole world!”
(Ellen White, Education, pg. 271)

Registration
Evangelism Congress Fund
$85,000 LUC dollars will be given to young adults who partner
with their local church for evangelism!
For every dollar (up to $85,000) from the Union,
the local church will match one dollar.
[For example, if your evangelism project total budget is $1,000.00,
and your local church decides to support you with $500.00,
the Lake Union will match that $500.00, completing the
$1,000.00 that your project needs.]
This gives young adults
$170,000.00 for evangelism!
