Youth Praise Experience in Vancouver

As summer heats up, plans for a cool concert event are coming together at Vancouver First United Methodist Church in downtown Vancouver, slated for Saturday, August 17^th.

Encore Rocks: A Youth Praise Experience will feature The Band Phoenix, and be an event full of food, fun and fellowship for youth across the Methodist district and Vancouver area. We would like to extend an invitation to youth groups from our neighboring United Methodist churches to come join together in a cool space, the Jason Lee Hall at Vancouver First United Methodist Church, to enjoy a taco/nacho bar and meet and greet other youth from the area. We will gather at 4 p.m.

The Band Phoenix, a local praise band, will kick off a concert of rock praise music featuring sets of some of today’s hottest hits. Following the concert, there will be a host of activities to take part in. If you or youth you know are interested in performing a song, we will have time devoted to open mic as the evening’s mixer continues.

The event will be hosted by the youth of VanFUMC, and a freewill donation of $5 will be accepted to offset costs, or non-perishable food items will be collected for the local food banks.
