UNIFIED Youth Annual Statewide Event | 6.13.26
Why a Unified Youth event? Because Jesus prayed in John 17:21 that we would be one—Unified Youth is our response, a bold generation rising in unity to worship, pray, and declare His name, knowing that our oneness is how the world will see that Jesus was sent by the Father.

ABOUT UNIFIED
Unified exists to join where the Lord is moving, putting our hands to the plow to meet the needs the Holy Spirit highlights. As the living, breathing body of Christ, we come from churches, home groups, businesses, and non-profits across the Columbus area to promote unity, healing, and transformation through Christ-centered worship and outreach.
Since 2020, we’ve partnered with over 60 churches and non-profits to host 25 gatherings, bringing believers together to share the love of Jesus in public spaces. Whether through worship, the arts, or serving practical needs, we are committed to being His hands and feet wherever He leads.

ABOUT
UNIFIED Youth is a movement equipping students to lead prayer and worship gatherings in their schools. Rooted in John 17:21—"that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me"—this initiative unites students, parents, teachers, and ministry leaders across organizational and denominational boundaries to see faith flourish in the next generation.
How It Began
In the spring of 2023, a 17-year-old high school senior felt a deep burden for his generation to encounter Jesus and the power of unity through the Gospel. He reached out to UNIFIED and from that moment, UNIFIED Youth was born.
On September 30, 2023, we partnered with Christ For All Nations for the first gathering on the Ohio Statehouse lawn to launch this initiative, and what unfolded was nothing short of extraordinary. That day, youth and young adults from our community rose up in unity—leading in prayer, worship, testimonies, scripture readings, and artistic expressions of devotion. The Spirit of God moved powerfully, igniting hearts like a blazing fire! Lives were transformed—some committed their lives to Christ, others experienced deliverance, and many surrendered more of themselves to Jesus. To God be the glory for the great things He's done & continues to do in our youth!
