Youth Talent Offerings
A talent offering from each of the twelve Holston Conference UMC districts will be performed at Resurrection. Contact your District Youth Coordinator for information on the district Festival of Gifts and Talents, where the youth talent for a district is selected. The youth talent must perform at Resurrection the same talent offering performed and selected at the district Festival of Gifts and Talents.
The youth talents must perform at the designated time (e.g., Friday evening, etc.) for both the A and the B Sessions. Specific times of performance will be assigned through the Resurrection Design Team, taking into account travel time to the event, type of talent, and other factors.
Specific times will be assigned after the youth talent results have been reported to the conference Youth Ministries office, which are due by November 17. Preferences for performing at particular times and weekends will be given priority based on completion of the Talent Form and delivery to the Youth Ministries Office.
Leaders Prayer Breakfast
A leaders' prayer breakfast is scheduled on Saturday morning at 8:00 a.m. upstairs in the Gatlinburg Convention Center. Please send at least one adult from your group to help undergird this event with prayer. Reservation cards will be included in the December information packets.
Prayer Ministry
In addition to praying generally for this ministry, you are invited to participate in three specific prayer-based opportunities available at Resurrection: (1) the Prayer Room; (2) the Prayer Path; and (3) the classical Labyrinth.
The Prayer Room is open throughout Resurrection and is in Room 12 (lower level). The youth and adults at Resurrection are invited to join in this effort to lift up the event, its leaders and participants.
Resurrection also offers an optional Prayer Path, a Christ-centered, multi-media labyrinth experience. Each Prayer Path participant will be provided with a CD headset which serves as a guide through ten stations. Each station challenges you to examine an area of your faith walk. Many stations have a visual or tactile presentation. The first several stations examine your internal being; the final stations examine outward expressions. The center of the Path is a quiet time to be with God. The Prayer Path is adapted from the ancient labyrinths which have long been used as meditation experiences. This modern version is individualized and non-threatening. It is suitable for any age who can appreciate silent meditation. Although handicapped accessible, some kneeling, sitting and standing are a part of most effectively experiencing the Path. The experience takes about an hour. The Prayer Path is offered in Room B (upper level) on Saturday from 8:00 am to the last admission at 10:00 pm, but will not be offered to you during your worship session times. Space is limited and sign-ups will be taken at the Resurrection office on Friday night and at Room B on Saturday. On Saturday, use the Airport Rd./Historic Nature Trail entrance.
The classical Labyrinth is offered in Room A (upper level) during the same times as the Prayer Path. The Labyrinth is an ancient spiritual tool, a winding circuitous path symbolizing a pilgrim's walk with God. The Labyrinth's single path into and out of the center is walked in prayerful silence. Unlike the Prayer Path, the classical Labyrinth is not a multi-media experience. The experience takes about one hour. Space is limited and sign-ups will be taken at the Resurrection office on Friday and at Room A on Saturday. It will not be offered to you during your worship session times.
