Steubenville '08 Trip
Wednesday, 16 July 2008
Active Image On Friday morning, July 11th, around 6:15 am, cars and vans arrived at Bishop Grimes High School to drop off excited youth and chaperones for their diocesan trip to the Steubeneville 2008 "Witness" Youth Conference at Steubenville, Ohio. ThereActive Image were 99 youth and chaperones that milled around the parking lot of Bishop Grimes eager to depart Syracuse for Steubenville from various parishes. This year's diocesan trip saw an increase in the number of youth that attended Steubenville.
 
Active Image The dioceses filled almost to capacity two buses for the trip that had youth attending from the parishes of Christ the King Liverpool, St. Matthews East Syracuse, Blessed Sacrament Johnson City, Immaculate Conception Fayettville, St. John the Baptist Rome, St. Francis/St. Mary Minoa, and St. John the Evangelist Camden. The parish of Christ the King Liverpool sent 35 people almost taking over an entire bus for their group. We are planning that next yearActive Image Christ the King will need to have an entire bus for themselves for the 2009 trip.
 
The diocesan youth were provided a t-shirt a day for the conference in the colors of green (Friday), saphire (Saturday) and red (Sunday) to wear at the conference identifying them from the Diocese of Syracuse. In the following weeks, we will be posting more pictures and stories about the trip as they are passed to us from the various youth and chaperones that attended the trip.

2008-2009 Diocesan Youth Ministry Calendar
Saturday, 14 June 2008
Active ImageWith the Pope's visit to the US, NCYC, World Youth Day and multiple events per month, this has been the busiest programming year the Office of Youth Ministry has seen since its beginning. This upcoming year will not have those big three events but planning for them (except the Pope's visit) will
continue to be ongoing.  While the emphasis this year was on programming our upcoming year's focus will be on equipping our ministers through training and networking.  We are planning on bringing in national speakers to attend our meetings and workshops so this should prove to be a inspirational year for our diocesan youth ministry community

Daily Thought

We are not asked to have shining armor to overcome Goliath, but simply to know how to choose a few stones, the right ones, with the wisdom and courage of David.
