NYC FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
What is Nazarene Youth Conference 2011 – A World Unbroken?
It is a life changing event for High School students that occurs every four years through dynamic speakers, worship, breakout sessions, concerts, and more. Participants will experience the transformational power of God, understand the brokenness in the world, discover effective ways to respond to this brokenness, and engage in the work of God to bring hope and healing. They will come together with thousands of youth from Canada and the United States worshipping, serving, and learning together.
Registration & Regional gatherings are on Tuesday and Ministry With Others (MWO) on Wednesday. A kick off service takes place on Wednesday evening and the week continues, jam-packed with workshops, plenary sessions, regional excursions, exhibits, concerts, and more. We will close NYC with the Sunday morning service.
When and where is it?
NYC 2011 will take place July 5-10 in Louisville, KY. Events will be held at the Kentucky International Convention Center (KICC) & Downtown Arena. The arena is still under construction. We will be the first group to use it for a convention. It hasn’t been named as of January so you might still have time to contribute the big bucks and have it named after you!
Louisville , KY is a great city for our conference – downtown Louisville is a safe, friendly, walkable city. Most of the housing for NYC is within blocks of KICC & the Arena. Many restaurants and attractions are within walking distance from the convention area.
Who can attend NYC 2011 – A World Unbroken?
· Any student that was, or will, be in High School in 2011 (this includes freshman in the fall of 2011).
· Adult District Sponsors will be chosen and approved by their district NYI leadership as well as undergo a background check.
· There is also a need for Adult Event Volunteers that must be approved by the NYC Office and undergo a background check and provide a pastoral reference.
Why should I go?
· Students: This week will be one of the highlights of your life…spiritually, intellectually, in everyway. You will meet new friends from all over Canada and the U.S., you will worship with more intensity than ever before, and you will experience the most awesome community with God and others than you ever have before in your life.
· Adult Sponsors: You desire to serve God by serving youth. You want to participate in something bigger than yourself. So why not spend a week investing in young people’s lives and being a part of one of the greatest encounters with the Kingdom the youth on your district will ever experience?
· Adult Event Volunteers: You think getting a one-of-a-kind T-shirt would be really cool. You would love to have the chance to work with other incredible servants of God at the 2nd largest event in the Church of the Nazarene. You’re all about making possible an event that would be impossible without you and most importantly you’re looking for an opportunity to help fulfill the vision for a World Unbroken!

Final note:
We are still working on details, there are many things we still don’t know or have from the NYC Office. We won’t be able to download registration forms till after March 1st. As we get new information we will pass it on, if there are any changes to what we have printed we will let you know.
Our goal has been to get this information in your hands so that you can set your goals and begin raising the funds that are needed with the most time possible. It can be done but you must plan and prepare and you should start now!
God Bless you as we all work together to accomplish this life changing event for our youth.
