:: WELCOME!! ::
In the small and mighty Episcopal Diocese of Delaware,
Youth Ministry is an important part of
who we are and what we represent.
:: PURPOSE ::
Youth Ministry means coming alongside an adolescent on their faith journey and helping them grow. It's about young people experiencing the love of God expressed through Christ and figuring out how to respond. It's the delicate and forgiving practice of Mission and Communion. Our Mission is twofold: to seek and serve Christ and to love our neighbors. And Communion, because we embark on the mission together, with them and with God's help.
