Theme for Youth Rally – “Rich Worship, Real Fellowship, Powerful Witness”. We want to ensure that all aspects of the theme is highlighted – rich worship: Celebration of the Liturgy in a way that will bring it to life for our youth; real fellowship : possibilities for youth to come together and make new friends while renewing old relationships and really sharing together during the day; powerful witness: witness to those at youth rally and those in the surrounding community, through our worship and fellowship. 2. Activities Rev. Campbell reported that the programme committee met and made some suggestions, however nothing was concretized due to the fact that the venue was not finalized. The committee will meet soon after a visit to the venue. It was suggested that we have two March of Witness one to the Mona residential community and the other to the Liguanea commercial area. Sasha confirmed that she made contact with the Church of the Ascension and St. Margaret’s about both areas. Persons from the churches will be present at the next planning committee meeting.
