Global Youth Day is set to launch the official week of the Youth Week of Prayer meetings. Ahead of time, please contact your pastor or conference youth leader to see what projects your church will be involved in on this day, March 16. If you are planning a full day event, The Holy Seed Church Development and Relief Agency (THSCDRA) has an amazing activity that can be done during your afternoon WY program. In Their Shoes is an interactive poverty experience that takes teens on a 24-hour journey into the lives of teens from other countries around the world. Through the eyes of this new identity, they will begin to understand the challenges that millions of people in developing countries face every day. You’ll discover what THSCDRA is doing to help and what the Bible has to say about living a life of Christian service.
