Youth Month

The month of August is finally here with us. These month is usually set aside as the youth month in our diocese. It is the month where we see a lot of activity and movement within the youth fraternity.

A brief recap of the previous month:
The MPW did take place on 11th July 2008 and it was such an amazing event. (A detailed report was posted earlier on this site).

On the 26th of July 2008, Eastern and Kasarani Archdeaconries were able to hold their sports’ days. Preliminary reports are that the events were a success and they are really geared for the Diocesan event which is scheduled to take place on 25th October 2008. All the other archdeaconries are being encouraged to prepare to hold their event before the diocesan one.

On the same day (26th July), Northwest Archdeaconry was able hold their drama festival.

This month as earlier mentioned, has a lot going on especially at the grassroots (our churches). A few things that are worth noting are noting are; the Provincial KAYO Conference that was scheduled to take place this month has been rescheduled until further notice. Also, the Diocese of Nairobi KAYO enrollment that is scheduled to take place on 30th August has been postponed to 13th December 2008.
