Conference Theme

In a world where we are constantly connected through technology, we find ourselves more isolated than ever. Our screens often keep us at a distance, offering a surface-level connection that leaves us craving deeper relationships. But Scripture reveals something radically different—a God who chose to come near. He didn’t remain far off but became flesh and dwelt among us. This summer at RYM, join us as we dive into the profound reality of a God who draws close, inviting us to know Him as Emmanuel, “God with Us.” Experience a week of faith, fellowship, and fun as we discover what it means to live fully in His presence.
