Youth Census & Youth Sojourn Deadlines
July 11, 2006
OLD GREENWICH, CT - His Eminence,
Metropolitan Nicholas at the Tuesday General Sobor session reminded
the clergy and delegates present that the Youth Census which was
forwarded to all diocesan parishes by the Diocesan Apostolate for Youth
has been completed by less than half of the parishes of the diocese. He
stressed its absolute importance in effectively ministering to our
diocesan youth. With the results of this census, a database with the
names, addresses and contact information of all diocesan youth from
birth to age 22 will be compiled. All parishes who have not completed
it need to do so immediately and forward same to Fr. Andrew Fetchina.
In
regard to the coming Youth Sojourn (Rally) at Camp Nazareth, (Fri
August 25 - Sun August 27) His Eminence stated it is his desire that
representatives from each parish in the diocese be in attendance. Each
parish should strive to cover the cost of each child age 12-22 who
wishes to attend. A registration form for each child who wishes to
attend must be filled out and returned to Fr. Jonathan Tobias within
the next two weeks so that proper preparations at Camp Nazareth may be
made for them. If at all possible, it is requested that each
parish/pastor send under one cover the registration forms for all their
parish's youth along with payment. Registration forms are found on Page
