Come weekend! It will not only be a time for music, dance and a get-together, but also for spiritual nourishment, deepening Biblical knowledge and acquisition of wisdom, as young people gather for their 2025 regional youth conference in Namahadi, Frankfort.
This three-day annual conference starts tomorrow evening, September 26, 2025, and ends on Sunday. It is organised by the Apostolic Faith Mission (AFM) of South Africa’s Northern Free State regional youth committee
