Rev. John Eckrote, Pastor at Arlington Community Church, recently produced some videos for their Sunday worship celebrations and he has graciously decided to share these videos with other pastors who might want to use them.

Here is a link to the videos to download.

Refresh is an annual gathering for youth workers — paid and volunteer. The purpose is to encourage one another, share best practices, create friendships, and be refreshed through soul care.

Time will be spent casting vision, talking strategy, and sharing resources to equip youth workers. We will tour the LIFE 2025 facilities and unwrap the vision and theme for our national student gathering. Finally, an extended time in worship, prayer, and God’s Word will encourage us to seek His face, experience His presence, and receive renewal.

We are excited to see how God works through Alliance Youth as we focus on developing youth workers for this next season of ministry.

Registration is open: https://www.regpack.com/reg/ayrefresh24

When: January 21–24, 2024

Where: Indianapolis, Indiana

Cost: $179—The cost includes shared-room housing and all meals from Sunday dinner through Wednesday breakfast.

We’re staying at The Courtyard and SpringHill Suites by Marriott Downtown Indianapolis.

With summer coming to an end, we’ll soon blink our eyes and the holidays will be upon us, followed quickly by our entrance into 2024.

Once again, the Alliance family will launch the new year with 40 Days of Prayer.

We’ll begin on Monday, January 1, and conclude on Friday, February 9, with a livestream family celebration of what God continues to do in our midst as we remain faithful in seeking Him.

This year’s prayer emphasis will focus on the various aspects of the Lord’s Prayer while we continue in this unique “now” moment we find ourselves in as a fully engaged, Christ-centered, Acts 1:8 family:

• Week 1 – Wake Up now.

• Week 2 – Pray now.

• Week 3 – His now.

• Week 4 – Worship now.

• Week 5 – Family now.

• Week 6 – Evangelize now.

We will be providing our usual packet of resources via email in early November. The resources will include graphics, sample sermon outlines and weekly introductory videos featuring Alliance leaders, as well as children's and youth materials.

Additionally, we’ll also be hosting weekly virtual prayer gatherings on Tuesdays at 7:30 p.m. ET led by our local Alliance churches in Columbus, Ohio. And we’ll conclude on the high note of a livestream for the Alliance family on the evening of Friday, February 9.

We’d love to have you and your church participate with us. You can select from what we’re doing and add to it with prayer initiatives for your local church. There is no better way to begin the year than being on our knees together seeking the face of God. 

Keep the faith!

VP for Church Ministries.
