| Looking for a discipleship guide for your young adults? Eager to deepen the devotion of new generations to Jesus? GODencounters may be just what you are looking for.
 GODencounters: Pursuing a 24/7 Experience of Jesus, which calls young adults into a deeper life with Christ, is long overdue. Young adults have long needed a voice that spoke directly to their spiritual, emotional, and social needs. Unique and out-of-the-ordinary, GODencounters will reach hearts where other printed books may not. Crafted by young adults and those who minister with them, GODencounters is different, interactive, thought provoking, introspective, and practical. I’m certain young adults who experience Jesus through GODencounters will be blessed in extraordinary ways.
- Bill Wood, Director, Atlantic Union Conference Youth & Young Adult Ministries
GODencounters: Pursuing a 24/7 Experience of Jesus explores the heart of a young adult movement recklessly living for GOD's renown. Authors Lynell LaMountain, Shayna Bailey, and A. Allan Martin, anchor an eclectic constellation of heartfelt entries which share an honest hunger to live in GOD's presence continually. Just released by Pacific Press, GODencounters is now available online or at your local Adventist Book Center.
GODencounters: Pursuing a 24/7 Experience of Jesus offers new generations a holy invitation to live life in His presence. It is raw and honest about this life, offering real experiences and real encouragement from other GODfollowers. Young adults are not the only ones who will be transformed. I highly recommend GODencounters!
- James Black, Director, North American Division Youth & Young Adult Ministries [YPAC]

New
Jersey GODencounters will be held June 21 & 28, 2008, at the
Tranquil Valley Retreat Center, milemarker 23, State Hwy 517,
Tranquility, NJ 07879, with Matt Gamble, Malou Cornago, Oscar
Rodriguez, Damian Chandler, and worship led by Jr Bonilla and the
Cherry Hill Gang. Festivities begin at 10:00 AM. For more information
call 609-392-7131 ext 211.
The theme this year is 'Go Wide!'
however before we 'Go' for Jesus we must encounter Him and that is our
goal for our time together. This jubilee celebration will be a time of
worship, fellowship, networking, inspiration but above all time with
our Creator.
For the first time at our New Jersey camp meeting
we'll have a separate venue and location for young adult worship and
fellowship. We're transforming the 'craft building' into the 'green
room', a kick back sanctuary lounge for us to connect with God and each
other. One of the features of this lounge will be a 'prayer room' where
you can dialog with God experientially.
At sundown, we will
conclude the meeting with a fun game of beach volleyball. Bring your
game. Hope to see you there. For more information email njyouth@aol.com
or call 609-392-7131 ext. 211.
