Resources
Before the Event
Travel and Funding. Planning to bring your group to Youth 2003 is not only about the details, details, details; but also about the preparation of your minds and spirits! We hope that you and your group have all the details covered. The sooner you have the logistics under control, the sooner you can begin to prepare yourself and the youth for an exciting and transformational experience at Youth 2003.
Explore these great sites for fundraising ideas, travel arrangements, directions, and more.
Spiritual Preparation. Just as important, we hope you will spend time with your group preparing for the ways you will be challenged to REACH at the event. Additional information about resources for spiritual preparation will be coming soon.
Service and Mission
Looking forward to a long ride with too many people in one vehicle, playing the alphabet game, and trying to control the radio? Make the most of your travel time and plan to stop to participate in mission together. Service will provide a great opportunity for you group to build relationships and an incredible opportunity for conversation and REACHing out to others.

After the Event
Our greatest hope is that Youth 2003 is a launching pad for individual and youth groups' spiritual growth and faith development. Some in your group may be captured by the ministry of the Youth Service Fund, spend most of their time at the Upper Room site, or be challenged to think about their faith in action.
When you return home the excitement and growth can continue. Be sure to explore and plan using the vast resources available to you through The United Methodist Church. Click here for United Methodist Resources, or visit our Links page for more.
