Code Red Youth Conference
The Code Red Youth Conference is a weekend conference geared towards impacting the lives of middle and high school students! This conference is hosted by Student Ministries at New Mercies Christian Church! As students prepare to go back to school it is our desire to equip, empower, and connect students to Christ. This is done through two days of engaging and out-of-the-box worship, interactive and fun activities, as well as educational empowerment opportunities. This is for every middle and high school student you know! This year our theme is “Identity!” This conference will help them understand who they are, whose they are, and what they are truly capable of! The Code Red Conference is our opportunity to connect them to a never changing God that will lead, guide, and cover them in a forever-changing world!

Coach LawrenceStudent & Young Adult Pastor
Born in Atlanta, Ga, and raised in Decatur, Ga, Lawrence Williams, II affectionately known as Coach Lawrence by many is a graduate of Alabama A&M University and Columbia Theological Seminary, father of three amazing children (Jahayla, Lawrence III, and Kason), a husband to Kentira Williams, and a member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc.
He watched his parents not only create an environment for learning, but also an environment that demanded excellence in every area of the lives of every student that came through the doors of their school.
His passion and love for helping young people to become the best version of themselves spans over 15 years of service as an educator in the Fulton, Gwinnett, and DeKalb County School Systems, volunteering for organizations such as Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA), NG3, New Mercies Christian Church Youth Ministry, coaching youth football, and eventually co-founding The HUDDLE Group that services middle and high school students in the Metro Atlanta Area.
It is his goal to ensure that the footprints of our young men and women are left to lead those that are coming after them to be impactful members of our society to ensure change takes place.
