The Youth Conference of the Ecumenical Patriarchate is expected to take place in autumn 2021.
The conference was scheduled as part of this year’s events, which has been declared the “Year of Spiritual renewal and Due Concern for the Youth” but was postponed due to the pandemic.
According to an announcement issued by the Ecumenical Patriarchate, this initiative is addressed to all Orthodox youth in Turkey, regardless of language or national and cultural background.
In the same announcement the Ecumenical Patriarchate stressed that a special committee has been set up under the chairmanship of Metropolitan Kyrillos of Imbros and Tenedos that will prepare the works of the conference.
Among the works that have already begun is the establishment of a Permanent Youth Office at the Ecumenical Patriarchate.
