Real McCoy Contest
Many young people have discovered their passion for God’s Kingdom by getting personally involved in life-giving MTM fundraising via The Real McCoy Contest. The students and young adults in your church can be involved in this exciting contest as we challenge our Apostolic youth to live sacrificially and become a generation of givers.
Winners (ages 12-18) from each district across North America will be flown in to the UPCI World Headquarters in St. Louis, MO, for an exclusive weekend with the executives of the UPCI Youth Ministries.
NOTE: Hyphen winners (ages 18-30) will participate in the Hyphen Conference visit the Hyphen Real McCoy Page for details.
