Brainerd Youth Rally

Brainerd Homecoming festivities are in full swing. The fun continues through what is traditionally “church night” on Wednesday. The Brainerd Area Youth for Christ turn “church night” into a party at their rally in Brainerd.

The rally begins with stand-up by comedian Joe Kessler and continues with live music, thought-provoking videos, and cheering crowds. Kessler turns from comedy to a serious message, encouraging people to leave their “comfort bubbles” and try something new.

The event gathers about 900 students from several schools besides Brainerd. Aitkin, Pillager, Little Falls, Crosby-Ironton, Pequot Lakes, Staples-Motley, and home-schooled students assemble for the rally.
