One local church is giving teenagers a safe space to be on Friday nights. With rising crime rates among the youth in Prince William County, the Young Life ministry at Move Church sees an opportunity to connect with local teens. On any Friday night, over 50 high school aged teens gather for a time of fellowship, worship, and to hear a relatable message. This August, the ministry is expanding their Friday night service to a two-day conference.
The 2nd Annual Capital Youth Conference is a groundbreaking event designed not just as a conference, but as a catalyst for positive change in the lives of young people.
