Episcopal Youth Event - Adult applications are ready


2011 is the next EYE and we're starting to get ready.  The first thing we're doing is trying to judge how many people are interested and ABLE to go.  The dates are going to be difficult for some folks so please double check them.  As always this is going to be a great event.  The home page for EYE 2011 is HERE

Because the adults need to meet several criteria in order to qualify we are getting their applications up first.  Adults interested in being part of the diocesan delegation can get the packet HERE

The Core Values of EYE
created by the Provincial Youth Ministers in February 2010
Focusing on Jesus Christ and his presence in our lives, EYE will provide an opportunity and create an environment where our young people and the adults who accompany them can continue to grow on their journey in faith.

Striving to be a uniquely Episcopal Community and acknowledging that each person is a child of God and that we are called together into a full relationship with God and God’s Creation, we claim that we are a sacramental people of common prayer with diverse understandings and cultural contexts, all of whom work together as the Body of Christ.

Celebrating our mission and our ministry as the Body of Christ in Community, we will offer training for young people and adults and equip them to be faithful servant leaders in their local and diocesan communities.

Embracing the “Anglican Marks of Mission” as our charge, we will strive to engage the passion and energy of faithful youth, to embrace their call to ministry and to empower them to put their faith into action.
