National Young Adult Committee Prepares for Nashville Conference
Nashville, TN - The National Young Adult Committee of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America convened in Nashville, TN, on January 20, 2006 for its biannual meetings, finalizing plans for the National Young Adult Conference which is scheduled from July 14-17, 2006.
His Eminence Archbishop Demetrios of America, who is scheduled to address the participants, is anticipating an enlightening spiritual experience for the young adults of the Archdiocese. His Eminence Metropolitan Nicholas of Detroit will also be in attendance to welcome the nation's young adults to the hosting Metropolis.
Throughout the weekend, young adults will have the opportunity to share fellowship with each other by experiencing local city venues, participating in workshops to further their life in Christ, and most importantly, growing in their Faith through worship and education. Workshops will be offered by noted Orthodox theologians and clergy from throughout our Archdiocese.
Evening activities include an outdoor concert with upcoming songwriters performing atop Vanderbilt University's Dyer Observatory, complete with dinner, desserts, and stargazing. The final event in Music City USA will be hosted at B.B. King's Club, blending the soul of Nashville with more great eats and live-music treats.
Young Adult Ministry serves those who are ages 18-35, helping them to become more active members of the Body of Christ. Scheduled events for the three day conference will incorporate the four circles of Young Adult Ministry, worship, witness, service, and fellowship, offering strength and balance to the everyday Christian life.
