An opportunity for those that minister to youth and young adults to gather will take place this spring as Youth and Young Adult Workers have been scheduled in all seven districts of the Detroit Conference.
Designed for clergy and laity that work with youth and young adults, as well as anyone who interested in ministering to youth and young adults, the days will give those in youth and young adult ministry the chance to connect with other youth and young adult workers and learn best practices.
Each day will run from approximately 10:00 a.m.-3:00 p.m. and will include a guest speaker, dialogue sessions, lunch, and a worship service. The Youth and Young Adult Worker Days will take place according to the following schedule:
