FROM THE DEAN’S DESK: TIKANGA YOUTH SUNDAY Today in our lectionary is Tikanga Youth Sunday. We celebrate the many ministries that young people are involved with in our Church and the important part they hold in our life together, in our wider Church and here in our Cathedral community. In February, Jessica Hughes and Fran Flores-Lim will report to us on their BOLD mission trip to Fiji this summer. We continue to hold Jess, Fran and all the BOLD participants in our prayers. Jess is also a Cathedral Council member and was the youngest Synod Representative at this year’s Synod! We pray today for Joe Bevans, our Youth Minister, and Caroline Chambers Torovugalei and all our Kathedral Kids team. If you would like to be part of these vital ministries please see Joe, Caroline or one of the clergy – more help always welcomed! Today at Choral Evensong, Lucy Flatt, Christchurch Diocese student from St John’s College who is on placement here at the Cathedral, will give the homily. We are reminded today also of the youth work in our Diocese, led by Karen Spoelstra, and for the links around our Dioceses, led by Phil Trotter. Thee tikanga youth ministry is an important part of our Church life as well and there are a number of shared training and mission initiatives which our young people are involved with. Youth ministry is, in fact, one of the places in our Church where three tikanga is alive and well! We celebrate the young people in our Cathedral community today and consider also what we each can do to encourage the young people in our communities.
Jo Kelly-Moore, Dean
