WESTERN EUROPEAN DIOCESE: 23 December 2024
Nativity of the Mother of God Cathedral hosts the annual Youth Conference of Great Britain and Western Europe

The Diocesan Youth Conference of 2024 began in London, England. Gathering on the evening of the Feast of the St Nicholas the Wonderworker were more than 80 young people from across Europe for a period of five days. The theme of this year's event is "Serving God and Each Other."

Among daily Divine Services, activities, excursions, and many social events amongst fellow Orthodox Christians, participants in the conference will hear talks by His Grace Bishop Irenei of London and Western Europe, Archpriest Pavel Tzvetkoff of the Geneva Cathedral, Archpriest Quentin de Castelbajac of the Lyon Parish in France, Priest Mark Tatum-Smith of the Mettingham Parish, Priest Aleksandr Groves of the St Leonard’s Parish, and others.

The young people will also have opportunities to further their interest in Church Liturgican music, and will sing at the Divine Services during weekend services.
