New Beginnings is a weekend event designed especially to respond to the unique challenges and concerns of your people in grades 6-8. It was created by adults and young people to help participants grow in their love of themselves, others and for Jesus Christ. During the weekend, participants meet peers from across the diocese, enjoy skits, listen to talks, and participate in small group activities and discussions. These activities focus on self, friends, parents, siblings, school, God’s love, prayer, and the church. Free time is built in for young people and adult youth leaders to have an opportunity to fellowship with their newfound friends.
