Prince/Princess Competition & Youth Influencer Challenge!
This youth-focused event aims to raise $6,000 for the AME Church assessment while empowering young people to grow as leaders, role models, and faith ambassadors in their communities. Every child’s participation is essential to make this effort a success.
There are two different challenge options:
Challenge 1
Each participant is asked to raise a minimum of $500. The child with the most money over $500 wins for their age group.
OR
Challenge 2
Invite family and friends to church from March 1st to April 12th. The child with the most visitors wins for each age group. There will be a barcode (located outside the Sanctuary) each week for people to scan to support a youth.
Friendly competitions will begin on Sunday, March 1, 2026.
