Young Adult Conference 2009!

Hey everyone!
We are super close to receiving the Young Adult Conference Brochure/Registration booklet and we are so excited! They should be here fresh off the printer by today or Monday at the very latest. Feel free to let me, Veronica, know if you would like us to send you one or if you would like to come by the office and pick some up! My email is veronica.nim@seattlearch.org and direct work line is 206.382.4562. We will be mailing them out to the parishes as soon as we get them in, so you can also get one from your parish office.

Make sure you tell your friends and keep Saturday, May 16 free to attend! It is being held at the University of Washington, Main Seattle Campus at Mary Gates Hall and the UW Newman Center for Mass with the Archbishop and a BBQ. We have been working very hard to put on an awesome event with amazing national speakers and presenters and we hope to see YOU there! God bless and take care, until next time!

Welcome to the new Young Adult Ministry Blog!!

We encourage you to bookmark this page (http://www.seattleoyyam.org/) or subscribe to the updates on this or any other page, to ensure you always have the most updated information from our office.

All the blogs hope to accomplish several things:

• Communicate the most accurate and updated information to people as possible.
• Make important information and resources available easily and effectively.
• Help people connect to the ministries offered through OYYAM
• Provide resources to youth and young adult ministers as they become available.

In order to do this you will find two types of links. Links that navigate through the blog providing information and updates, and links that send you back to the appropriate location on the Archdiocesan web page. If you find something not working, or have suggestions for how to improve the page, please e-mail them Bridget Harris.

Although the blog is mostly up, we will have a few pages with errors and inactive links until all the content is developed. As this site develops, we hope it helps everyone find the information they need here and on the main Archdiocese website. We will move more content to this as time goes on, so be sure to use http://www.seattleoyyam.org/ as your new first stop for updated information from OYYAM.
