There’s no question that the  involvement of the youth and young adults of our Church is crucial to the survival and growth of Orthodoxy.  Clergy and laity desire to see their youth become more vibrant members of their parish.  Towards this end, the Metropolis Youth and Family Ministries Office is pleased to invite youthworkers and GOYAns to a Youth and Young Adult Council for the Bay Area region, on Wednesday, September 17th at the Annuncation Cathedral in San Francisco. 

All youthworkers and up to 3 GOYAns from each parish are invited to attend.  The youthworkers should be individuals who are involved in any one of the following programs: Religious Ed., Young Adult Ministry, OCF, GOYA, HOPE, JOY, Dance, Basketball, etc.  The GOYAns should be the leaders of their GOYA.

The Purpose of the Youth and Young Adult Council meeting is to: 1) to meet the new Youth & Family Ministries Director, Niko Bekris; 2) to create a strong network for the youthworkers of the region; 3) to place 2008-09 events on parish calendars; 4) to better promote 08-09 events; 5) to meet other youthworkers and to support each other; 6) to share concerns/challenges in youth ministry.
