🇨🇦 2024 National Youth Assembly 🇨🇦
Friday June 28th - Monday July 1st, 2024
Ages 16-30
Welcome to the National Youth Assembly in the wonderful city of St. Catharines! Set against the stunning backdrop of the Niagara region, they are thrilled to have Greek Orthodox youth from all across Canada come together for a weekend filled with faith and fellowship.
The theme is linked with St. Paul’s words to the Hebrews: “Now faith is the confidence of what we hope for, and the evidence of things not seen.” (Heb. 11:1) That’s why this weekend will be focused on “Seeing is believing...and believing is seeing.” We have faith in the God of Love who created us, showed us His love through His death and Resurrection, and continues to show this love through the work of the Holy Spirit in the Church. This “assurance about what we do not see” is with us every day, all the while being surrounded by a world filled with skepticism and doubt.
Our welcome package is your gateway to the extraordinary journey ahead. Within these pages, you'll discover the carefully curated blend of activities, church services, and opportunities for building lasting bonds with fellow participants.
In order to participate in the National Youth Assembly 2024 (Friday June 28th- Monday July 1st), ALL participants and chaperone(s)/adult advisor(s) must register by filling in ALL the information requested by May 20, 2024.

This year’s National YAL Conference will feature many incredible opportunities to forge lasting and meaningful connections with fellow Orthodox Christian young adults.
