Q: Who is behind the Youth Rush program?
A: Youth Rush is sponsored by the Literature Ministries Department of the Washington Conference of Seventh-day Adventists.
Q: How long is the summer Youth Rush program?
A: 10 weeks. The 2010 program dates are from June 6th through August 12th, 2010
Q: Do we get time off for a break during the program?
A: Yes. There is a weekend break in the middle of the summer, from Friday to Sunday, when students are required to leave the program. If you are coming from out of the area, arrangements can be made for a place for you to stay during this break.
Q: What is the schedule like?
A: Each day we give you time for personal devotions, as well as getting ready for the day (showers, etc.). We have breakfast (provided by Youth Rush) as a group, then have group worship and training (Sun-Thurs) before heading out to the field. Friday and Sabbath are days off in which we relax, have fun, do laundry, and share testimonies at local churches.
Q: What if I can't come for the entire 10 weeks?
A: Priority is given to those who make a full 10-week commitment, however, we are willing to work with individual situations on a case-by-case basis. We want to make it possible for you to join - let us know the situation and we'll see what we can do.
Q: What if my school does not end before June 6th?
A: That's ok. We understand that some schools don't begin their summer vacation time until after Youth Rush begins. You can still join, but will need to come when school gets out.
Q: Do I have any financial responsibilities during the Youth Rush program?
A: Yes, but not many. You are responsible for buying 1 meal per day. Many students will buy groceries each week and prepare thier own lunches, but we also go to a place where you may buy your lunch (such as Subway, Taco Bell, etc.).
