Images from DYA

Wednesday, July 22, 2009

One of our students here at the Duke Youth Academy this summer, Nathan Milleson, is a photographer. He has been taking many of the photos that appear in the slide show each day in our DYA Daily Journal.

Here are a few more examples of his work:

ABOVE: DYA students and staff congregating on the patio outside of Duke Chapel after a shared meal.

ABOVE: Prof. Warren Smith engages DYA students following his lecture to them on the Resurrection.

ABOVE: Worship leader Matthew Nickoloff and mentor Wen Reagan lead students in a jam session following the nightly Eucharistic worship service.

I'm a big fan of this event. I wonder if Dr. Edie has ever thought about developing a guide for local churches to do something similar to this with their youth?

Josh -

Funny you should mention it. Actually, there is a curriculum book in the works right now with Pilgrim Press that will present the DYA curriculum in a form that can be used by local church youth groups.

When that book appears (probably in about a year), I will definitely highlight it. A lot of us who have worked with DYA are contributing to it. In the meantime, I would highly recommend Fred Edie's book, "Book, Bath, Table, and Time." I've written a review of it, which you can find at this link:

One more thing: The Texas Annual Conference launched their own Youth Academy this summer based off of the Duke model. It also took place earlier this month, and I heard it went well.
