Hello, Region IV!
Just a quick post to let you know that all of you are in my thought and prayers as we joyfully await Christmas in the final days of Advent. I am so grateful for each you and the gift you are to me, but even more so the gift you are to the youth and young adults of our region! :-) I wish you all a very blessed and peaceful Christmas and look forwarding to working with you more in the coming year.
A few reminders:
Our new OYYAM website will be up and running just after the first of the year. More info to come!
I will be sending out the minutes from our first adult planning team meeting. You will want to read these minutes as they contain important information about our region IV ACCY!
Peace,
Frances

Hello Region IV!
Our blog is up and running. While I will continue to send emails to our region, I will also be using this as our primary means of communication. If there is anything going on in our region that you would like posted to the blog, please email it to me and I will be sure it gets posted.
Youth Convention was amazing this year and it was great to see our region so well represented. Also, Dave Whitesell did our region proud with his keynote! :-) Congrats, Dave! We also had two For God and Youth winners and of course, Diakonia awards, etc.
In terms of upcoming events
- our region team of liaisons and leaders are currently working on a date for our first adult meeting. I will post that info as soon as it is decided.
- AREAS meeting is Tuesday, November 17 at Holy Redeemer.
- Sanctus NW will be hosted at St. Mary in Aberdeen on December 4.
I was in Aberdeen yesterday meeting with Fr. Jerry and Fr. Dennis - they are very excited about their upcoming Sanctus and wanted to make sure I extended an invitation to everyone in the region. Let's all come out and make this the biggest one yet and show support for our Grays Harbor parishes!
Have a wonderful weekend and I will see those of you in the Southern Deanery on Tuesday at AREAS.
Peace,
Frances
