Calling all acolytes! The Acolyte & Youth Leadership Festival (AYLF) registration is now open to 3rd through 12th graders.
This year’s festival will be hosted by St. Peter’s, Savannah and will be held Saturday and Sunday, November 9 & 10, 2013. AYLF will have a lock-in component with participants spending the night at St. Peter’s. The cost is just $40 to attend, which includes meals, snacks and a t-shirt. Priests from Savannah Convocation will work with youth ministers in putting on this fun event. Participants should bring their own vestments (marked with a church name or participant’s name) and their home church’s banner, which will be processed during the Sunday morning Eucharist at St. Peter’s.
At AYLF, participants can expect to participate in acolyting and church leadership workshops facilitated by experienced practitioners; to meet other young acolytes and church leaders from across the diocese; to learn about other liturgical practices; to share their own church experience; and to have fun!
