Young Adults Gather in South Africa at TEAM2007 Conference
Over 400 leaders from around the world gathered in Boksburg, South Africa
for TEAM (Towards Effective Anglican Mission), a conference focusing on the
Millennium Development Goals organized by the Anglican Church of Southern
Africa. While there has been excellent coverage of the event through
Episcopal News Service, there is very little featuring the voices of young
adults. To this end, we have organized a blog of young adult delegates'
thoughts about this event at: http://team2007youngadults.wordpress.com/.
Please feel free to submit comments and feedback.

Young adults at Christ Church, Springfield, reach out to the community
through art
Spirituality in the Arts 
The March 2nd event, "Spirituality in the Arts" was a true success. We had
16 artists. We had photography, pottery, paintings, sketches, fabrics and
musical art work. Our youngest artist was a 17 year old from Kickapoo who
displayed her anime work. Over 250 people came through the doors from 6-9pm
to look at the artwork and to experience the labyrinth. At 9pm we started
the U2charist. Using music from the rock group U2 we celebrated the
Eucharist. Read <http://www.episcopalchurch.org/49662_83256_ENG_HTM.htm>

Sabeel's International Conference for Young Adults
40 Years in the Wilderness: 40 Years of Occupation
19-29 July 2007 
During this conference, international and Palestinian young adults will
meet, share stories, and learn about one another's cultures. We hope you
will leave with new awareness of Christians around the world, and new
passion to pursue justice in your home communities. The conference will
include:

. Do you want to know more about Current Realities in Palestine, during this
40th year of the Occupation?
. Do you want to visit Biblical Sites and share Biblical reflection with
Young Adults from around the world?
. Are you between the ages of 18 and 35 and want to be involved in advocacy
for peace with justice in the Holy Land?

Young adult intern experiences the UN Commission
on the Status of Women 
by Amanda Akes
One NYIP intern in the midst of the Anglican Delegation to the United
Nations Commission on the Status of Women
I am an intern in the New York Intern Program (NYIP), one of many domestic
internship programs available through the Episcopal Church. I began my
journey of simple living as a part of an intentional Christian community
focused on social justice and spiritual reflection in late August of 2006.
When not spending time with my community at St. Mary's Episcopal Church in
West Harlem, I can be found on the fifth floor of the Episcopal Church
Center, in the Office of Women's Ministries. Read
