What is P.R.O.M.?

By now you may have heard about the P.R.O.M. committee and wondered what on earth it is and what they do! P.R.O.M. stands for Praying, Relaxing, and Opening Minds. This committee was the idea of a number of youth who attended the Episcopal Youth Event in San Antonio in July. The youth wanted to get together to organize more youth events and reach out to other youth. The P.R.O.M. committee is an open group, so any youth who are interested in working on a diocesan level to advocate for youth and plan events are welcome to participate. If you are interested in working with this youth group as an adult leader or if you know of youth who would like to join please contact the Diocesan Youth Missioner, Lydia Kelsey.



Safeguarding God’s Children Training

The diocesan approved child abuse prevention education and training, Safeguarding God’s Children, is required for all church personnel who regularly work with or around children or youth. Contact any of the certified trainers to set up your own training event, or check out the events calendar to see if a Safeguarding God's Children training is already scheduled near you.
 

 


Safeguarding Online 

Safeguarding God’s Children training is now available online! Individuals needing training or to renew their training can access the training modules using a computer with a high-speed internet connection. Contact Lydia Kelsey on how to get started!.
