Upward, VBS, Awana, Camp, Church
Joseph Young is quickly becoming one of the most sought after Christian Illusionist in the nation. Hundreds of Upward Basketball, Soccer, and Flag Football Award Celebrations, VBS, Awana, camps, and church functions have been impacted by his amazing sleight of hand, crazy clean comedy, and hilarious audience participation that your group will talk about for years and make you look like a GENIUS for partnering with Joseph Young Ministries. Most importantly hundreds of adults and children have accepted Jesus Christ into their heart and lives after witness this program.
The Gospel is presented in a clear manner using a few props explaining why Jesus died on the cross, what sin is, and how we can ask Jesus to come into our heart and life. This Plan of Salvation message is extremely easy for the children to understand, but will make a powerful impact on the adults as well.
HONORARIUM : It is very difficult to put a price on the opportunity to tell others about Jesus. The suggested asking honorarium fee is very affordable and negotiable. I will work with your church and budget because it is not about the honorarium fee, but about sharing the gospel of Jesus with the lost.
SUGGESTED PROGRAMS: "All God's Kids" or "Don't Miss the Boat on God".
REQUIREMENTS: I will provide the sound system, backdrop, tables and everything needed to present a professional program. You provide any suitable facility (stage, gym, etc.) and an audience.
"Joseph Young presented the Gospel message in a way that the young people could grasp. Many of our coaches who have coached for several years said that HE PRESENTED THE GOSPEL THE BEST WAY THAT THEY HAVE EVER SEEN. His illusions and comedy was just plain fun! He is truly a Five Star and I mean 5 White Stars. I look forward to bringing him back in the future." —Mitch Rodgers, Upward League Director, FUMC, Opp, AL
Joseph Young came through BIG for us in our very first year of Upward. He was easy to work with and has a heart for ministry. The kids big and small LOVED him! Most importantly he did an excellent job giving a clear gospel presentation! We had a number of kids and an adult respond to Christ. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Joseph Young Ministries. —Jason Moles, Upward League Director, Keystone Heights, FL
You had the best performance I have ever seen. It was the best Upward Awards night we have ever had. It was enjoyed by all the children as well as the adults. The way you presented a very clear and practical gospel message in with your magic was great. —Randall Wright & Children's Ministry Coordinator Michele Waters, Bethel Free Will Baptist Church, Kinston, SC
It was great having Joseph Young at our Upward Soccer Awards Night. It's no wonder his comedy and illusions are 'award winning'. Our children and adults alike are still talking about the "$100 bill in the kiwi" and continue to ask … "HOW DID HE DO THAT?!". While his performance was great, the best part was the clear, concise, biblical way he presented the gospel of our Lord, Jesus Christ. As a result of his message, we saw souls come to know Jesus!!. We would quickly and enthusiastically recommend Joseph Young for any event." —Gregg & Teresa Morgan, Upward League Directors, First Baptist Church, Strawberry Plains, TN
"I have been directing an Upward program for 6 years. Joseph is one of the BEST, if not the BEST Upward Presenters that I have seen. The kids were captivated and the Gospel message was clearly presented. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Joseph Young." —Richard Brineger, Upward Director, Elkins Valley First Baptist Church
"Last night was great! I have had many positive responses to your EXCELLENT program at Holy Mountain's Upward Night. Both kids and parents were equally awed by the magic and we are all Thankful you kept it so scripturally based. In our prayer meeting tonight, the subject was still your presentation. Best of all were the two young men who were saved at the conclusion. You can count on us to promote your award winning show to other churches." —Pastor Jerry Musick, Holy Mountain Baptist Church, Kingsport, TN
"Thank you so much for coming to our Upward Ceremony. I really enjoyed your program and I know the players did by listening to them ooh & ahh and of course giggle! The way you work Christ into your act is just simply perfect. But the trick where you washed the money is AMAZING." —Donna Elen, Emmaus Baptist Church, Poquoson, VA
"On Behalf of the faculty and students of grades K-5, thank you for you time that you spend with us during our Spiritual Emphasis Days. Weaving the scripture verse of Proverbs 3:5-6 into your presentations mad an impact on our students. Your friendliness and warmth to all of us here at New Life Christian School made your visit for us a memorable one. It is my prayer that our students will take what they have seen by your sleight of hand and the words that you shared will have a life changing work in their livers. Thank you for being a part of our special days of spiritual growth." —Paul Kemp, Principal of New Life Christian School (Frederick, MD)
"You're Amazing! Thank you so much for your performance and testimony at our Awards Night. God had been doing great things the whole season, and having you come was a fitting end to our season. I'm thrilled to tell you that six adults and more than 30 children accepted Jesus into their hearts that night! Thanks again for giving yourself to the Lord and serving him with your gifts." —Seth Carter, Wake Chapel Church, Fuquay-Varina, NC
