The IYM 30th Anniversary Bash

Honoring 30 Years of Impact
Thirty years ago, a group of Christian leaders committed to ministry with young people imagined a future where theologians and ministry leaders were part of a dynamic learning community that formed thoughtful, just, and creative ministries with teenagers. The result of this collective dreaming became the Institute for Youth Ministry (IYM) at Princeton Theological Seminary, and since 1995, the IYM has helped shape the theory and practice of youth ministry around the world. The IYM is honored to invite you to join us for the IYM’s 30th Anniversary Bash, where we will celebrate the incredible milestone of 30 years of impact and invest in the IYM’s future.
What is the 30th Anniversary Bash?
The 30th Anniversary Bash is a chance to celebrate what God has done through the Institute for Youth Ministry since 1995, as well as opportunity to imagine how God might continue working through the IYM into the future. Along with an elegant and festive dinner, the IYM will hold a program that features stories of impact, guest speakers, and special entertainment. We will celebrate the thousands of youth workers who have been formed by the work of the IYM, and we will facilitate opportunities for sowing seeds into the future. Join us!
