OCA launches "Wonder" youth blog

SYOSSET, NY (OCA) - In response to a growing need for content and materials geared towards young adult and college ministry, the Orthodox Church in America's Department of Youth, Young Adult and Campus Ministries has launched a new blog, "Wonder."

The blog, accessible at www.ocawonder.com, is also of value to those who minister to this age group.

"It is our hope that this project will give our youth a 'good defense' for the tough questions and harsh realities that this world offers," said Protodeacon Joseph Matusiak, department chair. "We hope these articles will spur discussion and provide material for those engaged in campus and young adult ministry."

Every month, "Wonder" will feature four articles on a specific theme, blending theological and academic articles with practical ideas for ministry.

"Suggestions and submissions from readers are always welcome," said Mr. Andrew Boyd, a department member who co-moderates the blog. "We're hoping that the blog will generate dialogue and two-way communications.
