Hi Friends!
We are bursting at the seams with news about Go4Glory! In less than two months from now we'll be converging in England, sharing our stories and giving Him glory.
If you have friends involved in Arts & Sports (Music, Worship, Dance, Visual Arts, Team & Individual Sports) please pass this update on to them and encourage them to register and join us! Registration for Go4Glory doesn't close until July 1st, 2012. We've already over 250 people registered and attending and we have room for MORE!
This is the first time Youth With A Mission has ever organized an Arts AND Sports Festival - we're calling on all YWAMers, all friends of YWAM and anyone who is currently involved in the Great Commission by way of arts and sports ministries. Come and let's celebrate together, let's get connected, let's GO out into the harvest field together. It's time to get connected, to bundle our energy and efforts to see His Kingdom come and His will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Do I hear an "AMEN"?!!
G4G visual arts update
Visual Arts Programme - Inspiring a Generation
Because the art of a nation reflects its society, we'll link together as a body of believers to offer and encourage art that is noble to impact the imagery of London this summer. This is a new season, connecting visual artists in a new movement of artists; we're going for God's Glory. We are working hand in hand with artists from all visual disciplines, all denominations and all nations to offer with passion a fresh understanding of Art. Connected with past traditions, we aim to promote and convey a sense of meaning, purpose and beauty in order to engage into the present art history and inspire the future generation to find their delight and wonder in our God.
- Noemie Jean-Bourgeault, Visual Arts Coordinator (www.noemiejb.com)

WORSHIP @ G4G
Each morning during Go4Glory we'll set the tone for our day with an extended time of worship. We want to keep the focus upon God and listen to His heart, so we've prioritised this time for all the participants to come around His throne with one voice and one heart.
Lucio & Dina Santana (Brazil) are planning times of multicultural worship and worship expressions. They are looking for a few musicians and others who are interested in expressing worship on stage with visual art, sports, dance, flags, etc. If you are already registered and would be willing to offer your service in worship, please contact Lucio & Dina at:
