Spectacular (SPEC) and International Youth Forum (IYF) are two of Community of Christ's largest gatherings for young people. In this episode of Onward with Community of Christ, President Stassi Cramm and her counselors, Bunda Chibwe and Janné Grover, explore why the church invests so heavily in them. Drawing on personal memories spanning decades, the hosts talk about why face-to-face gatherings matter more than ever in a digital age, and how these events help the church build lasting relationships across generations and cultures. The episode closes with practical ways members, congregations, and mission centers can support SPEC and the upcoming 2027 International Youth Forum.
