Wonderful….you’re interested in representing your deanery as a Youth Delegate!

Each year one delegate (and alternate) is elected as a representative from each of the three Diocese of West Missouri deaneries – the Central Deanery, Southern Deanery, and Northwest-Metro Deanery. If you’re not certain which deanery your church is in you’ll find that information listed here.

To apply, youth must meet four qualifications:

1. You must be 16 – 19 years old at the time of Diocesan Convention and a current participant in the youth ministry program.
2. Have been a “worshiper” within a congregation for at least six months
3. Able to attend Diocesan Convention (Nov 7-8 at Grace and Holy Trinity Cathedral)
4. Able to attend a minimum of two deanery meetings prior to diocesan convention.

Applications will be reviewed by the Youth Ministry Commission.

The election of delegates will be held during MissionPalooza, July 15-20, 2025.

Click here to complete an application and in the meantime, if you have any questions, please reach out to Kim Snodgrass, Interim Youth Coordinator.

Thank you for being willing to serve the youth of our diocese in this way!
