EYE FAQ's

Who is eligible to attend EYE? Episcopal youth currently enrolled in 9th, 10th, 11th, or 12th grade, approximately 15-18 year olds.

Can we have more than one Diocesan Registrar? No, thank you. Please give us one contact person so we are crystal clear on logistics.

Are Bishops welcome? Absolutely! Even if they cannot stay for the entire event. There is a consecration in Province IV that same weekend. Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefforts Schori will be with us to open the event. President of the House of Deputies Bonnie Anderson will be with us, too.

Do all adults have to be Safe Church Trained and background checked? YES; all adult leaders, clergy or lay, including bishops. This will be a safe event for all. The Youth Ministry Office can help you get on board if your diocese needs help.

What time should we get there? Your delegation should arrive any time on Wednesday, June 22, and should not depart before Sunday, June 26. We promise you won’t miss anything important as long as you adhere to that schedule.

Can we still register for 3 Days of Mission? There's still plenty of room as of today - but don't delay!

Where is EYE? St. Paul, Minnesota, Bethel University Campus (MSP International Airport or Amtrak shuttles will be arranged)

How many youth can attend? Each diocese may bring a maximum of 32 youth and 8 adults (4 youth to 1 adult ratio).

What’s the registration deadline? March 31, 2011. Unless we fill to campus capacity before then. So get started ASAP!

What should we bring? Besides a faithful spirit of fun and adventure, we’ll tell you in April – promise!

Who can answer my other questions? Bronwyn Clark Skov will address big picture stuff. Valerie Harris can help with logistics. Meghan Ritchie is supporting registration. Or you can call any of us at 1-800-334-7626.
