Baptist World Youth Conference 2008

“The world coming together” is how Baptist World Alliance youth and conference director, Emmett Dunn, describes the Baptist World Youth Conference, held every five years. Eight to ten thousand youth are expected to attend the next conference, the fifteenth, to be held in Leipzig, Germany, July 30 to August 3, 2008.

The youth conference is a unique gathering for young people from across the globe to join together in worship and in missions and to see what God is doing among youth around the world. Past youth conferences in Houston, Texas, USA, in 1998 and Hong Kong, China, in 2004 drew 8,000 youth from 87 countries and 4,000 youth from 66 countries respectively.

Under the theme, ‘Dive Deeper,’ youth attending the 2008 conference will be encouraged to dive deeper in commitment to Christ, in the study of God’s Word, in missions, and in fellowship.
