St Paul's Orthodox Youth Society
 

 

OUR MISSION

"We believe that the goal of St Paul's Orthodox Youth Society (SPOYS) is the integration of each young person fully into the total life of our congregation. We believe that Orthodox Christians must commit themselves to living the Orthodox Faith daily through worship, witness, service and fellowship. SPOYS strives to create a sense of belonging among the youth of our congregation. It is through theological, social and sport activities that we work together to maintain one of the church's most important assets."
