August 4, 2005

More than 1,000 young Episcopalians representing almost every diocese in the Episcopal Church gathered at Berea College in Kentucky July 26-31 for the 2005 Episcopal Youth Event.

The program included a variety of music, worship, public forums and workshops, all helping to capture the week's theme: "Can you catch the spirit off the beaten path?"

Presiding Bishop Frank Griswold and more than 50 other bishops also participated in the week's activities.

A photo gallery, video story and reflections from the Presiding Bishop can be found online at http://www.episcopalchurch.org/3577_63893_ENG_HTM.htm.
