Young Adult Advisory Delegate to the Synod Assembly

 

My name is Catherine Morgan. I’m a sophomore in college and I currently attend two different churches within our Presbytery, Community Presbyterian in Ringwood being my home church and First Presbyterian church in Hackettstown when I am at school. I had the opportunity to represent both of these churches and our entire presbytery in Albany, NY as a Young Adult Advisory Delegate (YAAD) at the Synod Assembly of the Synod of the Northeast. I was one of only three YAADs who attended the meeting both days and we were granted the permission to learn and vote about all of the same topics as all of the commissioners there. It was a great opportunity to learn about the workings of our synod and the roles we each have. I was lucky enough to meet multiple other people from the presbytery while there and I look forward to other chances to become involved within our presbytery.
