Thanks to the generous contributions of members and friends, the $150,000 goal for IYF Around the World has been reached! These dollars
will help house, feed, provide transportation, obtain visas, and cover program
expenses for hundreds of youth at the three International Youth Forum events
being held for the first time in locations outside the United States. In
addition to the IYF to be held in Independence, Missouri, Apostle David Schaal
pointed out that “contributions to IYF Around the World will make it possible
for hundreds of youth to have an IYF experience who otherwise would be unable
to attend.”
He continued, “We have already begun to receive messages from youth who are
looking forward to participating in IYF. They are excited, prayerful, and
eager to take their place in the ministry and mission of the church and
understand that IYF will be an important part of their development as
disciples.”
IYF will be held in Hong Kong May 21–28, in the USA July 20–22, in Honduras
July 31–August 7, and in Kenya August 5–12. Visit

about the events. Schaal said, “It is impossible to put a value on the
experience of a young person deepening their relationship with Christ while in
fellowship with youth from around the world. That’s what is so remarkable
about contributions to IYF Around the World—measurable contributions allow the
church to do things of immeasurable worth.”
Contributions to IYF Around the World will help create the most
far-reaching International Youth Forum in our history!
