Diocesan Convention

Diocesan Youth Gathering at Convention
(a.k.a. DYG)

Here are a few good reasons to be there…but there are plenty more! 

  • meet other youth and adults from around the diocese
  • attend “fun with a purpose” youth sessions
  • experience the inner workings of the Episcopal Church

The 2025 Diocesan Convention and DYG activities will be held at Grace and Holy Trinity Cathedral in Kansas City on November 7-8.

Plans are underway! Registration information and the schedule will be available soon, but meanwhile this is something we can all look forward to and put on the calendar. When youth register they’ll also have an opportunity to serve as a convention page, host the Ministry Fair Youth Booth, and/or help lead worship.

FYI: Established in 1890, the Annual Diocesan Convention is the annual business meeting of The Diocese of West Missouri and acts as the primary legislative body of the diocese. It’s a time when clergy and laypeople from all over the diocese come together to vote on an annual budget — called the ‘Plan for Ministry’, to elect officers, and to hear reports of work from diocesan programs. But more importantly, it’s a family reunion where we join together, worship together, learn together, and discern together — reflecting on becoming a better people of God.
