Scholarships are available for this event! If cost is keeping you from attending YE, fill out our scholarship form. This allows students to come to YE for free or at a discounted rate. Please apply using this form, and we’ll get back to you within two weeks (Wednesday–Sunday). 

No, this is not a sleep-away event. Students will be dismissed to go home each day.

You can access the entire event schedule here!

You will only need to bring money for snacks and merchandise purchases. The meals included with your ticket are dinner on Wednesday, dinner on Thursday, as well as lunch and dinner on Friday. All meals are included with your ticket!

Our Youth Encounter team of staff and volunteers will supervise all students during the event. We’ll also have a trained security team protecting the campus at all times to ensure the safety of every student.

While we love offering family events for students to attend with their parents, YE is not one of them. This is meant to be a space for students to individually connect with God and each other. However, we will host a parent meeting and invite parents to experience one of the Youth Encounter sessions.

This year, YE will be two half days and one full day on Friday! Throughout all three days, students will experience the following:

  • Six main sessions
  • Four meals
  • Four breakout sessions
  • Four small group opportunities
  • Fun activities and competitions
  • Worship
  • Biblical teachings to help students know more of who God is
  • YE merchandise and snacks for sale

Yes, YE is open to all students no matter their background or church affiliation! For more information on how to get your friends to YE 2024, please e-mail Youth@CalvaryFTL.org.

We’d love to answer any additional questions you have! Please e-mail us at Youth@CalvaryFTL.org and we’ll get back to you within five business days (Wednesday–Sunday).
