Greek Orthodox Youth of America
(Under the advisement and spiritual
guidance of
Rev.
Father Nicolaos H. Kotsis)
WHAT IS G.O.Y.A.?
The Greek Orthodox Youth of America, or G.O.Y.A., is the ministry to
teenagers of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America. Since G.O.Y.A. is ministry,
the orientation and implementation of the program should reflect the Orthodox
Christian Faith, Tradition and Life, including a well-rounded program of
religious, cultural, athletic and social activities.
G.O.Y.A. is ministry to junior high and high school grade Orthodox Christian
teenagers. Teenagers should be in seventh through twelfth grades to participate.
It is recommended that G.O.Y.A. ministry be divided into two distinct groups, the
junior high G.O.Y.A. ministry and the high school G.O.Y.A. ministry.
MISSION AND GOAL OF GOYA MINISTRY
The mission and goal of G.O.Y.A. ministry is to lead our young people into
experiencing the Holy Orthodox Faith. By developing a personal relationship with
our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ and becoming active sacramental members of the
living Church, our young people will be equipped with tools necessary to assist
them in their journey toward salvation.
