About the event
The Fire Must Never Go Out – the fire must never go out. For two days in Martin, young people who want to burn for God fully will meet. Come ignite the fire in your heart and take it with you wherever you go – to school, to work, among friends and home.
That's exactly what we want for our generation – not a one‑time experience, but a fire that endures.
Conference program
Friday, November 13, 2026 · 7:00 PM
First gathering
We’ll open the conference with worship and a message from Victor Kroeske. The night doesn’t end when the gathering does – we’re staying in the building, and everyone will have pizza dinner together.
Saturday, November 14, 2026 · 10:00 AM
Second gathering
In the morning we’ll start with a communal breakfast and at ten we’ll continue with the second gathering. We’ll close the conference around 2:00 PM – and take the fire with us for the whole week.
About Victor Kroeske
Victor Kroeske leads River Youth, the youth of River Church in the Netherlands. He is the brother of church founder Ben Kroeske and together with him serves and builds a rapidly growing congregation that includes hundreds of young people.
He will come to Martin to encourage our generation so that its fire for God never goes out.
Stay with us overnight
Don’t want to go home right after Friday’s pizza? Stay. You can sleep in the building and in the morning communal breakfasts await us. Dinner and breakfast are free. It’s the best time for conversations, laughter and new friendships – just bring a sleeping bag and a mat.
If you want to stay overnight, let your youth leader know or send us a message on Instagram @_ckmartin.
Raffle for prizes worth €1,000
The conference also includes a raffle with prizes worth €1,000 – AirPods, sneakers and other items that are really worth winning. Anyone can join directly on site, and it’s completely free.
Who the conference is for
The conference is for young people ages 14 to 25. Admission is free and you don’t have to be a believer – come alone or bring friends, even those who don’t normally attend church.
