Big Week for Diocese of Lexington Young Adults

Two big events this week--
the start of Canterbury Pub tonight at 6:30 at Azur Restaurant's patio, or indoors if it continues to rain...The topic for the next four Tuesdays is "What Do Episcopalians Believe?"

Friday we have young adult musicians providing a jazz setting for Eucharist here at Mission House in Lexington, starting at 6 pm. I hope this will be the first of many services that the young adult commission sponsors with good music and new worship opportunities.

This is an exciting time in the diocese as young adults begin to see their power, look at options for improving the response to their needs and take action to see their needs being met. Several priests of the diocese are engaged in various campus ministries, and the theology on tap program, which I hope will continue once a month this fall.

We ended the vocational discernment group in June and I think there is interest in continuing this fall too. More info will be coming on that.

As campus missioner, my office is still in the diocesan headquarters, but there is a plan to make the office at UK in St. Augustine's chapel, with the current Lutheran pastor there, Barry Neese. I hope to institute one eucharist a week for faculty at UK, more info will be coming on that too.

If there is a program or event you would like to see in the diocese, reply to this post or email me. The more input I have, the better the programming for young adults.
