Come to hear recent high school graduates from Israel share how they’ve become ambassadors for peace in the strife-filled Holy Land.
The students, who come from Christian and Muslim backgrounds, are graduates of the Mars Elias schools. Located in the Galilee region of Israel, the schools offer kindergarten through university level classes to children of Christian, Muslim, Jewish and Druze heritage. The schools also provide education in the ways of peace, reconciliation, respect, and justice. “We intend to build peace on the desktops of children,” says Father Elias Chacour, founder of the Mars Elias Educational Institutions.
A light lunch will be served.

The world’s best Christian conference for young adults and student only happens every three years, and Urbana is coming this December 27 – 31, in St. Louis, Missouri. This life-changing event showcases 5 days and nights of teaching, worship, seminars, and exhibitors from leading mission organizations and seminaries, alongside 16,000 of your Christian brothers and sisters.
“Urbana is awesome! If you are even considering the possibility of more significant involvement in mission, you should go. For more than 60 years Urbana has been the best global gathering of inspiring speakers and practical next steps toward mission involvement. Join the BelPres Urbana delegation and you’ll agree it was one of the best experiences in your life.” Pastor Scott Mann
If you want to go, don’t let money stop you. BelPres has scholarships to help get you (or your daughter/son) there! We can also help with logistics planning for hotel and air travel for the BelPres’ delegation. We will ask the congregation to donate miles to help defray the cost even further. Register early to get the best rates, Prices go up as the date gets closer. BelPres will offer $500 to all participants to apply towards registration, travel or room costs.
The conference is primarily for those age 17 and older, especially college-age students and young adults but is open and great for ministry leaders, elders, deacons, volunteers, and anyone else who is exploring how their talents, passions, and calling intersect with God’s purposes.
Pastor Rich Leatherberry states, “Urbana is the best conference out there for young adults looking to discover ways to connect their gifts and passions with what God is doing in the world. Urbana will inspire, challenge and shape you in ways that will help you find your purpose and give you joy.”
