The first International Youth Convention 2019 of the New Apostolic Church will span from Thursday, 30 May to Sunday, 2 June 2019. Pre-registrations are open for youth from India, and today we take a look at what participants can expect – and what will be expected from them until the end of this year.
Until end of AUGUST:
Pre-Registrations are open for you to sign up. NAC India needs an assurance that interested candidates are not only seriously interested, but also that it is possible for them to participate.
The pre-registration survey therefore prompts for submission of passport details and upload of a softcopy (pdf, first and last page). Furthermore, the upload of a bank document is mandatory as proof for sufficient funds (bank statement, FD / RD document). In order to secure their participation, interested candidates will have to save up two installments:
- INR 80,000/- by end of OCTOBER 2018 (for registration and flight bookings), and
- the balance of INR 70,000/- latest by end of FEBRUARY 2019 (to ensure cheaper internal travel options – the later we book, the less we get to see).

Irrespective of whether the registration will be done by the participants (as individuals) or by NAC India (as a group), the registration fee of EUR 125 (approx. INR 10,000/-) will have to be paid. This fee includes a place to sleep, showers and food for 3 days during the IYC. More details will follow later.
Until end of OCTOBER:
Every participant will deposit an installment of Rs. 80,000/- into a convener’s account (yet to be set up – volunteers are welcome). He / she will in turn:
- Buy flight tickets @ approx. INR 60,000/- each
- Apply for Schengen Tourist Visa @ approx. INR 5,000/- each
From DECEMBER onwards:
Coordination with all participants to plan domestic travel, accommodation, places of interest and holiday itinerary in Europe (post IYC).
