Welcome to Priscilla as she assumes her new role as part-time Youth Minister at St Olaf's.
We discussed the regional model and the reality of geographic coverage. Given the Pierce Deanery meets on a regular basis through PCCYMA, an invitation was given to the Olympic Deanery to attend those meetings as a launching point towards what may work for the Olympic deanery and/or Region III.
An updated ACCY (Diocesian and Regional) approach was shared and feedback given. Feeback included:
- limited capacity for another meeting in addition to PCCYMA for both adult and youth leaders. Could be a challenge.
- the first year might be just adult leaders/Youth Ministers to clarify the ACCY roles and expectations.
- some youth groups are in their infancy stages and do not yet have youth leaders identified.
Overall, it was a great venue to network, relate stories and share upcoming events. Please see other blog posts for more announcements.
Please leave your comments if I've forgotten anything! Thanks, Carmen H. for taking notes!
2nd gathering is scheduled for Tuesday, March 30th at St Nicholas from 10am - 1p.m.
