2009 Youth Conference Message from the National Director

February 27, 2009
National Young People’s Department
Dr. Marian J. Hockenhull, Director

Greetings in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

Blessings to all Local, District, State, and Regional Directors; all Ministers, Pastors, Officers and Delegates! 

Plans are underway for exciting, informative, and inspirational programs for our five regions, namely; Western, Mid-West, Northeast, Southeast, and Southwest.  Please note these changes that have been prayerfully considered for the betterment of all of the Regions.

1.No T-Shirts will be sold this year.  We are asking all States to feature their State T-Shirts.  The Regions will not order T-Shirts for any State. 
2.There will be no ON-Site Registration for any Region.  Regional Directors have been asked to contact Director Hockenhull for any inconvenience, or any individual may contact Director Hockenhull directly by calling (810-742-2462)
3.Whatever the activity that fees are collected, it must be noted on the Pre-registration form, i.e. Director’s March, Scholarship, Queen’s Review, Rose Petals, Breakfast, Banquets, Receptions, etc. 

Early communication is vital for the success of each Region.  I have communicated this to ALL-Regional Directors in January.  God is a good God.  He is a great God.  He can do anything but fail.  His Word tells us to “Let all things be done decently and in order” (1 Corinthians 14:40).

From those of you that I have met in each Region, you have voiced your concern about timely communication from the regions.  I am confident that you will Pre-register and do it in a Christianly, timely manner.  God Bless All of You!

Prayerfully,
Director Marian Hockenhull
