PASADENA—Jeb Egbert, national youth ministry co-director, visited the Southern California churches May 3 to conduct a conference for youth leaders and youth workers. The host church was the Pasadena WCG congregation.

The day began with a worship service led by teen vocalists and soloists and the Dizon family praise band. Dr. Egbert gave the sermon, and then after lunch led a discussion on Jesus’ disciplemaking strategy, which was to seek the lost, build believers, equip workers and then multiply leaders and send them out to seek new believers. We do youth ministry by embracing Jesus’ person, being moved by his passion, and participating in his ministry pattern, he said.

That evening Dr. Egbert had a roundtable discussion with the SEP California staff about our mission of making disciples who make disciples, and how to better integrate SEP campers back into local church ministry after camp. Dennis Pelley.
