2009 YSF Grants

The Conference Council on Youth Ministry of the Tennessee Conference has reviewed the 2009 YSF grant applications.  This year sixteen youth groups from the Tennessee Conference requested assistance totaling nearly $47,000.  While we were not able to fund the full amounts requested by each group, we were able to give out $10,000 in awards.  Nevertheless, we know that God is the great multiplier.  It is our prayer that God will use all of the groups to do incredible work for the Kingdom.

The following youth groups received YSF grants this year.  We look forward to hearing how God used their group to serve others in the name of Jesus Christ at FRESH 2010, our youth annual conference event, in June 2010.
