Beloved Family in Christ,
As I sit down to write this message, my heart is filled with gratitude and excitement for what God is doing through the 2025 OSYO Convention. The theme, “Reconnecting to the Grace of Jesus Christ,” couldn’t have come at a better time. In a world that often feels overwhelming, uncertain, and demanding, we need reminders of God’s unchanging grace more than ever.
Let me encourage you with these words: You are not alone.
Whether you’re walking through a season of joy or facing challenges that seem insurmountable, remember this: “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit” (Psalm 34:18). This convention is an opportunity to draw near to Him, to lay down your burdens, and to allow His grace to carry you forward.
Here’s why I believe this convention will be life-changing for you:
- It’s a Safe Space to Be Real
There’s no need to pretend everything is okay when it’s not. At this convention, you’ll find a community of young people who understand your struggles because they’ve faced similar ones. Together, we’ll lift our voices in worship, pour out our hearts in prayer, and receive fresh hope from God’s Word. - Grace Will Meet You Where You Are
Maybe you feel like you’ve wandered too far from God. Maybe you’re carrying guilt or shame. Let me remind you of Romans 5:20: “Where sin increased, grace abounded all the more.” No matter where you are in your journey, God’s grace is greater. This convention is your chance to reconnect with Him and experience His love afresh. - You’ll Leave Empowered
The teachings, testimonies, and workshops are designed to equip you—not just spiritually but practically. You’ll leave with tools to strengthen your faith, navigate challenges, and step boldly into the purpose God has for you. - You’re Part of Something Bigger
As members of the Celestial Youth family, we’re called to impact our communities and the world. This convention isn’t just about personal revival; it’s about preparing us to be agents of change. Imagine the difference we can make when we unite under the banner of God’s grace!
I want to challenge you: Don’t just attend—participate fully. Come with an open heart, ready to receive all that God has for you. Bring friends, family, and anyone who needs encouragement. Let’s create an atmosphere where lives are transformed and destinies are redefined.
Finally, let me leave you with this promise from Scripture: “But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint” (Isaiah 40:31).
This convention is your moment to rise higher, to press deeper into God’s presence, and to embrace the fullness of His grace. I can’t wait to see the miracles, breakthroughs, and transformations that will happen during these days.
So pack your bags, prepare your heart, and get ready to encounter God in a powerful way. Remember, you belong here, and you are loved beyond measure.
See you at the convention!
With love and prayers,
Oga Boss
Youth Coordinator, Celestial Church of Christ Oyo State Youth Organization
