The Church of England Youth Council is a body of young Christians from dioceses throughout the Church of England. Its present incarnation was founded in 2004. CEYC exists to Represent, Enrich and Engage with young people throughout the Church of England. ==Functionality== The council's 'core group' committee meets monthly at Church House, Westminster to keep up with current affairs within the Church and in the wider national community of England, to ensure members are available to attend any one-off events in which either the church or young people should be represented and to talk through report of our longer standing seats on councils and committees (such as the Board of Education representative or their three General Synod representatives, and to plan for the national meetings which take place in Autumn and Spring. They aim to have two representatives, aged 16 to 25, from each of the 43 dioceses in the Church of England - not including the core group members who are seen to represent the national council and not their home dioceses; however the regular number of members (between 30 and 50, excluding the core group) are spread widely between the north and south of the country and recently has included a member from the Church of England Diocese of Sodor and Man. Regional Youth Councils are also beginning to emerge; the strongest of these is in the Diocese of Derby which holds its own elections for national representatives from the council. CEYC has strong links with members of groups such as FURY, the Methodist Youth Assembly, the Quakers and members of the Evangelical Church in Germany, all of whom are welcome visitors to CEYC meetings. Some members have also had, on occasion, various international opportunities, travelling to such places as New York and Germany. They have attended meetings such as the Ecumenical Youth Council of Europe, the General Convention of the Episcopal Church and, as part of an Anglican Observer group, the United Nations. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Church of England Youth Council」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
