LARGEST U.S. GATHERING OF CHRISTIAN JUNIOR HIGH YOUTH MEETS IN NORTHERN KENTUCKY
Bank of Kentucky Center Hosts More Than 3,500 Christian Junior High Students
Highland Heights, KY/February 12, 2009–The nation’s largest gathering of Junior High Christians will be congregating at the Bank of Kentucky Center at Northern Kentucky University for Christ In Youth’s Believe event February 20-21. More than 3,500 students will gather from at least seven states to take part in the Christian conference.
Believe Director, Johnny Scott says, “We look forward to the Cincinnati event all year because it always seems to have record turn outs and we are able to impact so many students for God. There are events out there for junior high and high school students combined but not an event that reaches out to junior high students only,” Scott noted.
Believe is a two-day event that will impact over 18,000 students combined at 15 locations coast to coast. At Believe students will encounter the best youth speakers in the country, powerful drama and a high-energy worship experience. For more information log onto www.ciy.com/believe.
