the diocesan youth team
This is a work in progress! At the moment we have a group of people who are committed to working with young people from around the Diocese and together make up the youth committee. But this is a large Diocese, and we want to encourage a strong sense of the value of the local as well as the Diocesan, so three new posts have been created based upon the three archdeaconries.
So our team is emerging and currently looks like this:
Diocesan Youth Officer
–vacant
Archdeaconry Youth Officer for Ceredigion
– Dyfrig Lloyd dyfriglloyd@hotmail.com
Archdeaconry Youth Officer for St Davids- Thelma Barber thelmabarber@btinternet.com
Archdeaconry Youth Officer for Camarthen
- Vacant
Diocesan Youth Committee Chairperson
- Nick Cale
- We aim to:
- Offer support and encouragement to all who work with young people throughout the Diocese.
- Offer advice, information and where possible, training to parishes on safe, imaginative and inspiring work with young people.
- provide local and Diocesan Youth services, camps and events in order to encourage and disciple young people.
