SLC 2013 – Dallas: Only 2 Months Away

April 10, 2013 by doug Leave a Comment

I am so excited to train more teenage leaders this summer! We’ve got a great team assembled and a new site in Dallas–that’s only 2 months away. Do you have some potential leaders that you can “lean into” and cast vision for who they can become? If so, invite them (their life might be changed by that invitation of belief–mine was when I was in 9th grade)! We’re not looking for your entire youth group, we’re looking for a few.

PLUS MANY MORE… Click here for our entire speaker lineup!

Question: What questions do you have? I’ll be happy to answer them. Post them here.

”I can say that its largely because of SLC last summer that we’ve seen such an incredible year of student leadership within our High School Ministry here at Saddleback. They heard from the best and had a great experience together and came back changed – I couldn’t be more excited about signing up for another year at SLC!” - Josh Griffin, High School Pastor at Saddleback Church, CA

Take a look around your student ministry and ask yourself,

“Who is ready for Student Leadership Conference 2013?”

SLC is a conference designed to train your teenagers to better understand their role as leaders in your ministry. Over the last several years, we’ve learned that this conference isn’t for everyone in your group, but it is perfect for those who are READY! You’ve got some students who are ready to follow Jesus and impact their school, family, community and church. At SLC we’ll help them discover their gifts, explore their passion, and develop their potential leadership within their youth group.

Last summer, Doug Fields, Mark Matlock, Kara Powell, Walt Mueller, Greg Stier and several other youth ministry thought-leaders gave of their hearts and minds to over 1000 student leaders. This summer, we’ll have more youth ministry veterans as we expand to three locations and continue our tradition of learning and serving in an innovative, experiential and collaborative manner.

Come and find out why so many youth workers are saying Student Leadership Conference has changed their youth ministry!

I couldn’t be more excited about this year’s Student Leadership Conference. I’m thankful for what Josh wrote here about SLC and that he will be joining us at two of our locations this year. Also, we’ve announced that my close friends, the Skit Guys, will be joining us in Dallas. Don’t miss out on this early bird price! I hope to see you this summer at SLC and be sure to leave a comment if you have any questions.

There are few things I love more than our Student Leadership Conference. We’re expanding it to 3 locations this summer (see below). I hope you can join us and get your group in on the early bird rate. It’s the least expensive camp that I know of…great prices if you get in early. Would love for you to join us! –Doug
