What is Summit?
A ministry of Bethel URC, Calgary.
Summit began in 2016, and for its first years the name was synonymous with the August Youth Conference. In February 2022, Bethel hosted the first Summit Reformed Young Adults Conference (RYAC). Today Summit is the banner name for Bethel’s Youth and Young Adult Conferences.
Young people come from all over Canada, the US, and even as far away as the Netherlands and Australia. The Summit Conference Committee organizes each conference, and the Council of Bethel United Reformed Church oversees its finances.
