* * * The Methodist Youth Conference

“The Methodist Youth Conference exists to provide an opportunity within the Methodist Church for young people to:

  1. inform individuals and bodies of young peoples views;
  2. comment on policy and practice of the Methodist Church;
  3. consider and express its conclusions on such matters of interest or importance to the Methodist Church as it may choose, especially social issues;
  4. discuss especially, although not exclusively, these issues as they affect young people.

The Youth Conference is open to any young person involved in the life of the Methodist Church and aged 13 years or over, but under 26 on the 1st September in the connexional year in which the Youth Conference is to meet” – from the Methodist Standing Order 250 (Methodist Church rules)

How can the Youth conference express itself?
The Youth Conference is able to submit business to the main Methodist Conference which is held every year.

What happens at Youth Conference?
Debates: These take up a lot of time at Youth Conference. The topics for discussion include ideas that members of the Conference want to talk about. There are also reports from people who where elected to various positions last years.

Worship: Throughout the weekend there are opportunities to take part in worship, hopefully including a variety of new worship styles.

Workshops: There is the chance to take part in a number of workshops during the weekend, some serious, some fun and some sporty.

Elections: This is where members of the Youth Executive, and a number of other representatives are chosen by the members of the Youth Conference.

Downtime: Don't forget that one of the best things about Youth Conference is the opportunity to speak with people from around the country. Many lasting friendships have formed through chats at mealtimes so don't miss out on the informal side of things.
