Young People's & Children's Division
Under the leadership of the Women's Missionary Society, the Electrifying Eleventh District YPD is a dynamic organization committed to developing young Christian leaders. We provide meaningful training that equips youth for leadership in both the church and the world. We encourage young people to use their gifts to glorify and serve the Lord and to advocate for their communities and others. Our mission is to nurture spiritual growth, cultivate leadership skills, and inspire a lifelong commitment to service. As the Electrifying Eleventh, we bring electrifying energy, purpose, and faith to everything we do.
Greetings 11th District Family,
The 11th District YPD is excited to invite you to join us for the 39th Annual Black Heritage Weekend, a powerful time of worship, fellowship, mission, talent, and celebration of our rich heritage. This year’s gathering will take place February 13–15, 2026, on the campus of Edward Waters University in Jacksonville, Florida, under the theme:
A Chosen Generation #Gamechangers (1 Peter 2:9)- This year, the YPD is declaring we are a chosen generation—set apart by God, empowered to live with purpose, walk in our God-given identity, and lead our world as strong, brave, and true game changers who carry light into every dark place. This weekend will inspire, equip, and challenge us to stand boldly in who God has called us to be.
Registration closes in 7 days on December 23rd, and we encourage every church, family, and individual across the 11th District to make plans now to attend.
Don't wait & Register TODAY at: www.blackheritageweekend.com
Let us come together in unity, celebration, and purpose as we honor our past, embrace our present, and prepare for the future God has ordained for us.
