Six years ago, God drew my attention to the problem of senseless and idle pastime of Christian youth during the New Year’s days. It became apparent that young people wanted a special way to celebrate the New Year were looking for “something special.” As a result, they find “something,” but not really “special” and important. Thus was born the idea of New Year’s youth event called “Heart reload.” For six years we have discussed different pressing theme: “Consecration”, “Born to Win”, “Church”, “Heaven”, “The essence of Gospel,” “Crossroads of life”, etc.

Every year the number of participants grows and the geography of visitors expands. At this annual youth meeting people came from all parts of Ukraine, Belarus, Russia and Germany. For six consecutive years, we, as the organizers of the youth meeting, have noticed a significant growth of young people in faith and in knowledge of Gospel of Jesus Christ. Many young people turn to God directly during the conference, many have devoted their lives to God and His service. Many unbelievers have heard the Gospel for the first time these days. Of course, despite the huge burden on the organizing team, I want to note the growth of young people who were previously just the participants, and now they serve others at the conference to the full extent.

God gave us these unique days not to dance around the Christmas tree, but for the deep analysis of our life and the knowledge of His glory, which transforms us into His image. Paul encourages us to redeem the time, because the days are evil (short)… “Heart reload” is an opportunity to invest our time right and to immerse our heart in the living fountain of God’s Word. This is an opportunity to have fellowship with mature people and to share faith and experiences with peers from different cities. God gave us these days for the necessary revaluation and edification.

I thank all those who made this youth meeting possible, those who pray for the team and participants, who supported us financially, who donated their time and personally put their hearts into service to others. The LORD recompense you a hundredfold for your participation in His holy cause!

With open hearts, we invite everyone who wants to know God and worship Him, everyone open to changes and influence of the Word, all those who love a healthy Christian community to come to the “Heart reload” conference in 2015-2016 year. May the Lord confirm His kingdom through maturity, humility and dedication of Christian youth! Remember, all the best and most valuable belongs to Him!
