In October, we welcomed 100+ youth pastors representing over 8,000 students to Vancouver, BC for our very first Canadian Youth Pastor Summit. 3 days with some of Canada’s best youth pastors, all gathering for the sake of the next generation. These are some of our favorite moments from our time together.

In this episode, you’ll hear from:

• Youth ministry experts Lisette Fraser, Sid Koop and Jason Ballard.
• Youth Pastor Jarin Oda from Bridgetown Church. 
• Pastor and preacher Chris Price. 
• And other youth pastors we interviewed live, in the moment from across Canada.

Join Mariah Smith and Jaden Neufeld from the team at CCLN as they walk through the final day of the gathering, uncovering themes like partnering with parents, leading vulnerably in front of students, emerging gender identities, the beauty of serving youth long-term, best practices for spiritual formation & more.
