Purpose: to broaden the support and accountability of Youth Ministry

First meeting was held on July 30 and the following was accomplished:

We will define the success of our Youth Ministry by the following:

1. The consistency and commitment of the clergy, vestry, and parish in valuing, supporting, and connecting with the Youth of Palmer. (This is the most important item! Relationships.)
2. The incorporation and integration of the Youth into the worship, ministries, and overall life of the parish.

3. Raising up leaders within the Youth.

4. Empowering youth decision-making in regards to programming and discerning vocations within the church.

Our long-term goal is doing “all in our [our] power to support these persons in their life in Christ” as stated in the Baptismal Covenant (BCP, 303).
