Mission & Goals of GOYA Ministry
The mission and goal of the GOYA ministry is to lead teenagers (grades 7 – 12) into experiencing the Holy Orthodox Faith. By developing a personal relationship with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and becoming active sacramental members of the living Church, our young people will be equipped with tools necessary to assist them in their journey toward salvation. By laying a foundation of faith at this age, the youth will have something that will guide and strengthen them as they progress into college and the work force.
