ENGLEWOOD, NJ — The Antiochian Archdiocese’s Department of Youth and Young Adult Ministries will host a free one-hour Zoom workshop for Orthodox teen ministry leaders on Thursday, February 19, offering training, resources, and peer connection for those serving young people in parish and diocesan settings.

The quarterly workshop, open to Antiochian youth workers nationwide, will begin at 9 p.m. EST. Organizers say the session is designed to strengthen ministry to Orthodox teens through shared experience, discussion, and practical tools.

Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions, exchange ideas with fellow youth workers, and receive a new discussion guide focused on social media and its impact on teens. While the workshop is free of charge, advance registration is required to attend.

The Department emphasized that the gathering aims to foster fellowship and encouragement among those engaged in the demanding but essential work of Orthodox youth ministry.

Previously, the UOJ reported that Metr. Ignatios stated that children today want to know the truth.
