RISE

ABOUT

Every year on June 16th, South Africans celebrate Youth Day; a day where we remember the atrocities of the past as we make every effort to look forward to a hope for a brighter future. As a nation, we celebrate the militant role that young people played in the end of Apartheid, and we do everything in our power to cultivate excitement from the young people of today for a future South Africa that seems further and further away with every Youth Day that passes.

As the Church, youth & young adults all over the country embrace this day as an opportunity to encourage young people to be bold and confident in their pursuit of God; that only when young people focus on Jesus as the hope for the future, then only do we stand a chance to change the world. RISE Conference was birthed out of that truth, that Jesus and Jesus alone is the hope for the future.
