"Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." Galatians 6:9

All Good News Club workers (new volunteers, returning volunteers, and coordinators) are invited and highly encouraged to attend our Good News Conference. We offer training and classes at every level, so we hope that everyone will learn something new and leave feeling equipped for the year ahead!

At Good News Conference, our primary goal is to encourage, equip, and empower our GNC & JYC volunteers for the year ahead. We also hope and pray that this conference strengthens godly relationships among like-minded individuals who share a passion for reaching the next generation with the gospel.
