Peacejam

As you can see from the photos below we had the first meeting of the young people who are going to plan and deliver the service learning project we are doing as part of the Peacejam conference. It was definitely a great start and I am excited by what these young people can and will acheive

Youth Team meets for the first time

Last Wednesday We finally met for the Peace Jam meeting. I felt like it went pretty good. However, when it comes to people coming together to help out the community I try not to have really high expectations from people. But I must admit I was really impressed with the way everybody came together. By the end of the meeting, I felt like we all had accomplished. Awareness was spread, opinions were heard, people came together. It was a pretty successful couple of hours.
