Young Adult Conference

A one-day catalytic gathering designed to help your church reach and connect young adults.

Host a Young Adult Conference at Your Church

Young adults are looking for authenticity, community, and a place to belong. A one-day Young Adult Conference creates a welcoming on-ramp to your church—while building momentum toward ongoing discipleship through groups and next steps.


  • Connects young adults in key life transitions
  • Builds meaningful community in a formative season
  • Creates clear pathways into small groups and discipleship

A conference isn’t just a one-day event. It’s a church-wide outreach moment that can lead to ongoing discipleship and lasting community.

- Who are Young Adults? -

Be a Friend Worth Having

Table for One Ministries has existed since 2013. We help build community for single adults through discipleship. We provide resources for singles and young adults, including blogs, conferences, Bible studies, and coaching. Our resources serve singles of all ages and backgrounds. We equip the local church to make disciples who make disciples.
