Check it Out!!

Here are some great upcoming events to check out:

Kairos 2008


If you are between the ages of 18 and 30, we want to invite you to join us for Kairos 2008. Kairos is a national event of the United Church of Canada that is specifically intended for young adults. It is hosted every three years by a different Conference and London Conference is proud and excited to be hosting in the coming year. From August 24th-29th, 2008, young adults from all across Canada will gather at Five Oaks United Church Education and Retreat Centre (near Paris, ON) and live in community together for one week. There will be opportunities for fun and games, learning and discussion, music and art, worship and prayer. We will eat, sing, talk, laugh and celebrate Sabbath together.

Our theme for Kairos 2008 is “It Matters.” We will be wrestling with the questions of what matters for us as young adults, what matters for the church and what matters for the world we live in. The five theme streams that will take place during the week will focus on the topics of the environment, political activism, arts and creativity, technology and leadership. We will celebrate Sabbath together, worship together, and engage in discussions together, while also striving to create time for people to be alone with God in nature.

Head to the website (www.kairos2008.ca) to check out the video and stay tuned for registration packages and more information. Everything will be posted online as soon as it becomes available.

We look forward to seeing everybody next summer!
