Have we come to enjoy the hype and etc associated with large events so much that we allow that to fuel our relationships with God. I have an idea, have Congress on Wednesday and Thursday and then send all 20,000 people into the streets to show the love of Jesus. How can 20,000 Apostolic's gather in one place and not completely turn that city upside down?

Actually NAYC has incorporated personal evangelism and community service into the conference. It's called Project 22:39, and is based on
Matthew 22:39.

The General Youth Division is proud to facilitate the fifth Project 22:39 event in the host city of North American Youth Congress. This community give-back project is inspired by Matthew 22:39 [And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself]. Join hundreds of students Friday afternoon in personal evangelism initiatives and community service projects by sharing the gospel and the love of Jesus Christ with Oklahoma City.
