What is AKYC?
Alaska Youth Conference is a gathering of middle school, high school, and college students from across Alaska coming together to encounter God, grow in their faith, and discover what it means to fully follow Jesus. This generation was created for a purpose. Our heart is to see students filled and empowered by the Holy Spirit, equipped with boldness, and sent out to make a difference in their schools, families, churches, and communities.
At AKYC, students will experience powerful worship, life-changing messages, and moments that challenge them to step deeper into their relationship with Jesus.
This is a weekend to leave behind distractions, say yes to God's calling, and take the next step of faith.
Our conference theme this year is " Jesus over Everything ". Let's allow him to be our Lord over everything in our Lives.
