For those of you who are unfamiliar with the Presbytery Youth
Triennium. It is a gathering of high school age youth from the
Presbyterian Church (USA) and the Cumberland Presbyterian Church
that occurs every three years.
The youth joined other members of our local Presbytery, as well
as other youth from across the USA, Canada and other countries.

OR for a week-long service project. They partnered with Sierra
Service Project (SSP).

project July 30- Aug. 5 to Smith River CA. This will be a

staying in California, helping communities repair deteriorated
infrastructure, painting and restoring gardens. For more

The Presbyterian
Youth Triennium 2016 took place at Purdue University in July.
This is a world-wide Presbyterian Church Event for youth. The
three Westminster participants spent their time engaging in
activities that will connect them with growing faith, studies,
presentations, and mission experiences. They met new people and
grew stronger in their faith walk.
If you are in high school and would like more information about
future Trienniums, please contact: Diana@westminsac.org for more
details.
Westminster’s young people and their adult counselors from
Westminster participated in a mission trips to Stockton, CA, and

volunteer on Native American reservations.The group made home
repairs, re-roofed, built wheel chair ramps and porches, painted
houses inside and out, and weatherized homes. In the
evenings they explored the culture of the community in which they
served, studied, and worshiped with throughout the week.
