Diocesan Ministry Developer Andrea McKellar, who coordinates youth ministry for our diocese, reports on the youth lock-in held April 12-13 at Grace Church Cathedral:
The fourth Annual Bishop’s Lock-in was another huge success. There were more than 30 participants from four congregations. Bishop Adams was sad to have to miss the event this year, but he sent the youth a video message. The evening included food, games, music, and lots of laughter. The youth taught each other activities that they have learned through their own involvement in church, diocesan, and Province IV events. At Holy Eucharist, the group got more serious and focused on our own faith and Holy Week. The group was led through five stations with hands-on activities. After a little sleep, Saturday morning included an overview of upcoming opportunities for youth, a service activity, and praying for our graduating seniors, Kathryn Hart and Matthew Kyzer, who have been active in diocesan ministry since the first lock-in. If you are interested in learning more about opportunities for youth in our diocese, please visit the Youth Page on our website or contact Diocesan Youth Coordinator, Andrea McKellar at [email protected].
