General Convention 2012 Youth Application & Flyer
The Diocese of Newark will take a group of high school youth who have completed grades 9-12 and adult chaperones to the General Convention of the Episcopal Church in Indianapolis, IN on July 6-10, 2012. General Convention is the main gathering of the Episcopal Church, which occurs every 3 years.
This event is not like EYE, and requires a commitment to operating in an adult environment, learning about the intricacies of how the Episcopal Church governs itself, and making a pledge to bring this experience home to your diocese and home congregation.
Please fill out the attached application completely and return by Friday, March 23, 2012 to Kaileen Alston, Diocesan Director of Youth & Young Adult Ministries at Episcopal House, 31 Mulberry St., Newark, NJ 07102.
