expressed by the SCOBA endorsed Orthodox Christian Network, (OCN) to collaborate
with our diocese in producing educational programing for the popular Come
Receive the Light Radio Program. Of particular interest to OCN is the work
of the Diocesan Apostolate For Youth (DAY). Plans are being made to produce
several Orthodox Teen Talk Online (OTTO) programs during the coming year which
will feature diocesan youth informally dialoguing about contemporary moral
issues facing teenagers.
Along with His Eminence, Metropolitan Nicholas, several members of the
Diocesan Apostolate For Youth have been asked to speak on some aspect of Youth
Ministry.
