Since 2015, the Diocese of Atlanta has provided a missional experience for teens. The event is known as atlSERVE. Each year, more than 50 youth from across the Diocese come together to serve and be served by communities in Atlanta and it's metros. The focus of the week remains the same each year - where do we see God in the world and how can we show God's love?
In 2018, the Diocese of Atlanta will be hosting the Province IV Youth Event, PYE 2018. We will join together to experience the Presence of God in the world. There will be other service partners added as we move closer to PYE 2018. Each will present an opportunity to serve and be served by God's people.
PYE 2018 will take place from July 25-28. Saturday, the 28th, will be a travel day. The Atlanta airport is 20 minutes from our housing site. The cost to attend PYE 2018 is $150 per participant.
Our service partners:
After serving for the day, we spend part of the evening reflecting on our experience. As part of this year's PYE 2018, we have invited Posts for Peace to be a part of the reflection. We will dive into PEACE and share ideas of how we can be instruments of peace within Atlanta, at home, and the world.
Using 6 ft posts, we will create works of art that will be displayed across the country in an effort to raise awareness and stimulate conversation leading to peace and resolving injustice. You can find more information at postsforpeaceandjustice.org
