Experience Transformation

This year’s theme, “Heaven to Earth - God established in you”, will equip young believers to face the world’s skepticism. We’ll explore the foundation of our Christian faith and the reasons behind our beliefs.

Get Empowered for Purpose

The Green Room Youth Experience (GRYE) is not your ordinary youth conference. We provide youth and young adults with the tools, knowledge, and guidance they need to discover and embrace their purpose on the world's stage for Jesus Christ.

Connect with Community

At The Green Room, we understand the importance of community and the power of connection. We provide a safe space where young people can come together, knowing that they are not alone in their faith journey.

Suddenly, there was a sound from heaven like the roaring of a mighty windstorm, and it filled the house where they were sitting. —Acts 2:2 NLT

Encounter God

We believe that encountering God is a life-transforming experience. That's why GRYE is designed to create an atmosphere where young people can have a unique and powerful encounter with God.

ARE YOU READY FOR HEAVEN TO TOUCH EARTH?

In a culture that pressures conformity over faith in God, The Green Room Youth Experience is committed to creating a space where students can cultivate steadfast belief.

Statistics say that 66% of young adults leave the church by the age of 18 because of doubt and questions about their faith that have gone unanswered. This year’s theme “HEAVEN TO EARTH” emphasizes God’s transformative power that is still working today. We will remind students that God did not leave us hopeless and helpless on earth.

All will leave empowered by biblical truth through inspiring sessions, thought-provoking dialogues, and engaging activities.
