Randall is the Ministry Developer for Young adults and Youth in the Episcopal Church in Arkansas. He grew up in Oklahoma and began his youth ministry career in Kansas City at St. Andrew's Episcopal Church 12 years a go. He lives in Maumelle, a suburb of Little Rock with his wife, 5 year old daughter and one pug. You can reach him at rcurtis@episcopalarkansas.org or www.facebook.com/randallcurtis

Who serves this network? Ideally we would have 12 dioceses on the Network which would consist of one adult and one youth from each. We have a chair person and one at-large youth representative.

Purpose of Network’s Ministry: The coming together as a network to build communication between each diocese of the Province. This is a valuable network and is also a way to involve the youth on the Provincial level.

Ways Province VII can help with these goals: Be aware of the events that are being made available to the youth of the Province and to support and talk them up in your home parish and on the diocesan level.

SPRING '11 MEETING

Our 2011 Spring meeting will take place from Thursday March 31st to Sunday April 3rd. This meeting will be held at All Saints Camp and Conference Center at Lake Texoma within the Diocese of Dallas. This weekend will include training, networking, fun, and resource sharing. Our workshops will be led by the Reverend Jason Alexander, Canon to the Ordinary for the Diocese of Arkansas; Mr. Randall Curtis, Youth Coordinator for the Diocese of Arkansas and Province Youth Coordinator for Province 7; and Ms. Bronwyn Skov, Youth Ministries Officer for The Episcopal Church. Province 7 will cover the cost for one (1) adult and two (2) youth representatives from each diocese to attend. Each diocese is

 

expected to cover their own transportation costs. If a diocese would like to send additional adults the cost $125 as space allows.
