Synod Youth Executive
The Wessex Synod Youth Executive (WSYE) is a group of young people aged between 14 and 25 from local churches in Wessex Synod. SYE meets at least three times a year, including ‘open days’ for youth to join the SYE. We plan and host the youth program for Wessex Synod and we ensure the voice of young people is heard at all levels of the URC.
Howdy! I’m Kathleen, I’m currently training to become a farrier and shoe horses which is super fun and exciting as I learn lots of new things. I go to the Romsey URC, enjoy being part of the WSYE and I love going to comic- con whenever I can!
Hey there, my name is Kailey. I am from Christ Church URC in Marlow. I love to help out if and when I can. In the summer I love taking part in a week-long Christian teaching program called Lighthouse. I also love to help out at the Wessex Synod Re: Camp. In my spare time I like to journal, play video games and attempt to draw (I can’t draw). Oh, and pineapple does belong on a pizza. See you soon 🙂

This is where I had the opportunity locally to represent my area on Wessex Synod. I am also in NYMBB (The National Methodist Youth Brass Band).
