It would be my pleasure to grow our Diocesan network. ~ Leslie Giddings, Learning Facilitator
Our youth conference was a success! Thank you to the many participants, leaders and volunteers who made it possible. Our DYC Facebook page has lots of pictures to share!

Many thanks to the planning team: Kiersten Jensen (Trinity Bank St.), Rev. Kerri Brennan (Christ Church, Ashton), Rev. Jonathan Aswith (The Parishes of Maberly-Lanark/Parham-Sharbot Lake), Jenna Kelly and Ally Montminy (past DYC participants), and Colman Brown (intern).

The Junior youth retreat, held in Morrisburg, was attended by over 20 participants aged 9 to 12 from across the Diocese. This is an important feeder event to the Diocesan Youth Conference and an opportunity for youth to meet other Anglicans. See pictures in a digital scrapbook format here.
Thanks to the planning team of Ashley Russell (Ascension, Ottawa), Kelly Ellis (St. James, Manotick), Kiersten Jensen (Trinity, Bank St.) and Wendy Lewis (Parish of South Dundas).
