Happening!

Happening is a weekend of exploring the Christian faith first-hand, in the context of the tradition and worship of the Episcopal Church.  

The weekend is planned and run by youth for youth!! It is intentionally structured to bring high school age youth together to build community, have fun, and to share the Christian faith as experienced in the lives of other high school youth.

Happening is an active weekend, filled with music, discussion, creative worship, and quiet times. It is designed for, and run by, young people. It is a weekend during which young people speak from their own experiences, informed by the traditions of the Episcopal Church. The emphasis is on practical Christianity: What does it mean to be a teenager and a Christian in today's world?
