EYE coverage from Episcopal News Service

Episcopal Youth enriched and empowered for mission

Great story by Joe Bjordal (who was there virtually the entire time) from Episcopal News Service (ENS) about EYE
That's Bishop Brian Prior of the Episcopal Church in Minnesota (do NOT say Diocese of..., trust me on that) doing a blessing of the Habitat for Humanity house that EYE helped to build.  It's designed to have a minimal carbon foot print and in fact should generate more electricity than it uses.  Yes, that's also a bagpiper up there too.  All of EYE was supposed to be there for the blessing but we had to cross a road to get from the campus to the work site.  The local authorities said that when 1,000 people cross a road it's a parade which require permits and two weeks notice.  So only the bishops and two youth reps from each diocese were there.  The rest of us saw it on video delay.
