Parish Retreat
St. V’s
recently embarked on a new program for youth called The
Journey to Adulthood.* This series of regular meetings
includes faith-based discussions, a service component, and
social activities. The focus of the teen group is to
deepen not only personal faith but also to understand the role
of each individual as part of the church community and the world
community. We expect doubt as a healthy part of personal faith
and growth. We welcome questions and uncertainty. At the same
time, we challenge our young people to expand their horizons so
that their discussions will be based on increasing awareness and
understanding of their own Christian faith tradition
The young
people who so choose are also involved in a program of
preparation for the sacrament of Confirmation. The next
Confirmation celebration at St. V’s is expected to be in the
Spring of 2007.
We
encourage the youth at St. Vincent’s to know and respect
each other’s different skills, gifts, fears, and concerns,
remembering that all are the Body of Christ. We promote a
hospitable welcome for all. It gives us great pleasure to
watch the progress of our young folks.
* This
comprehensive program for spiritual development for youth
was developed by St. Philip’s Episcopal Church in Durham,
NC. Limited-use licenses are distributed by Leader Resources.
