Upstream

Some of us at the Upstream mid-winter retreat 2008

Leeland's song "Opposite Way" talks about how God's will for us is to go in the opposite direction that the world is going. That is what RYM's youth leadership programme is all about, and the reason behind the name "Upstream". We are called to be salt and light to this dying world. To swim upstream of the godless flow and to encourage others to follow.

Every young person has the potential to make history for Jesus, if only they would renspond to God the way Isaiah did... "Here I am send me!"

RYM's leadership team meets weekly for prayer (essence), is encouraged regularly via email, meets monthly for upskilling, participates in occasional outreach events, enjoys a yearly mid-winter retreat and runs an annual youth leadership conference.

If you attend any of RYM's programmes and are keen to go the opposite way and persue youth minisrty leadership, we want to hear from you!

welcome

Welcome to www.renewalyouth.com, the website of Renewal Youth Ministries. It is our passion to see tweens, teens, and young adults living with purpose, walking in God's destiny for them, and making history for God in their generation. We are totally committed to this cause and are very excited to see God move in 08 through, and for His young people. We dare to believe that God wants to take and use young people to fulfil His plan and purpose in a phenomenal way in this day and age. Another world is possible.
