EPISCOPAL YOUTH EVENT (EYE) 2008
“Sown in the Heart of Christ"
Tuesday July, 8 - Sunday July 13, 2008
Trinity University
San Antonio, Texas
EYE is THE national gathering of Episcopal teenagers. It happens once every three years and it is amazing, astounding and a once in a lifetime event.
The gathering of youth from throughout The Episcopal Church is open to young people who will have just finished grades 9-12. EYE is an opportunity to meet other youth from around the world and to participate in worship, programs, music and fun. Each Diocese is allotted an initial allocation of 15 slots (11 youth and 3 adults) and a significant requirement is that the delegation reflect the diversity in the diocese.
This year’s theme—Sown in the Heart of Christ—is drawn from Matthew 13:3, 23: “Listen! A sower went out to sow.…But as for what was sown on good soil, this is the one who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and yields…” EYE is designed to inspire and equip participants for Christian discipleship.
The cost of the event is $480.00 (plus the cost of air transportation which will be arranged for the group by the diocesan EYE coordinator). The $480.00 includes double occupancy in air-conditioned Trinity University dorms, three meals a day. ground transportation to and from San Antonio Airport, an event t-shirt and giveaways, song and liturgy books, and other resource materials.
Young people wishing to attend must fill out an application form and return it to the event coordinator by Friday, March 28th.
Emile Beal is the Diocese of Massachusetts Coordinator and Registrar for EYE 2008
