THEME: KAIROS: YOUR MOMENT OF OPPORTUNITY
Each of these youth group events offers morning and evening sessions with high energy worship, guest preachers and workshops! Events are led by a team of college students, guest speakers, and worship bands. The program is geared towards 6th through 12th graders.
Lake Junaluska Summer Youth Events draw diverse youth groups from multiple states. The events are large enough to be lively and exciting, while never so big that youth feel lost or anonymous. Our prayer is that each participant feels seen and known by Lake Junaluska’s youth ministry staff, small group and workshop leaders, other youth and most importantly by God.
Afternoons are free for groups to plan rafting trips, do mission work or enjoy the swimming pool or boats at Lake Junaluska.

Jimmy Atkins hails from western NC, where he is a worship pastor at a local church, a songwriter, and a storyteller. A frequent conference speaker and band leader, he formerly led the band, Second Hand City.

This is something born out of a hope and desire to see them grow up in Jesus.”
