YOUTH (GOYA)
Our Greek Orthodox Youth Association Family.
Greek Orthodox Youth Ministry for Strengthening Faith and Fellowship.
The ministry for Greek Orthodox youth aged 12 and up is called GOYA. The aim of GOYA is to build strong bonds of fellowship among peers while strengthening our Greek Orthodox Christian beliefs and faith. GOYA members engage in monthly meetings and group activities, which help them to learn about our Orthodox faith and culture. Additionally, GOYA offers opportunities for youth to participate in charitable events and group activities that enable them to become active members of the community.

Let’s Connect!
Joins us every other Thursday as we get together for discussions on various events.
“And He gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.” Epistle to the Ephesians 4:11-13
CAMP MET
Experience the transformative power of faith and fellowship – the ultimate summer camp for Greek Orthodox youth.
Camp Metamorphosis is an annual event organized by the Greek Orthodox Church that provides a unique opportunity for youth to immerse themselves in their faith while enjoying the great outdoors. During the week-long summer camp, participants engage in a variety of activities designed to deepen their understanding and practice of Orthodox Christianity, including worship services, bible studies, and discussions led by experienced clergy and youth leaders. In addition to spiritual activities, the camp also offers opportunities for recreational and team-building activities that promote fellowship and personal growth. Camp Metamorphosis is a cherished tradition that has touched the lives of countless young people, helping them to develop a stronger relationship with God and a deeper appreciation for their Orthodox heritage.
