GOYA
Greek Orthodox Youth Association
GOYA is a nation wide Greek Orthodox Youth Association. GOYA’s goal is to help young Orthodox Christians (age 12-18) connect with Jesus Christ and each other through worship, hanging out, and doing good deeds together. In addition to regular monthly meetings, St. Nicholas’ GOYA group participates in many fun and exciting events:
Religious retreats
Sports teams and competitions (volleyball, basketball and more)
Sances
GOYA pageant
GOYA Olympics
Service projects
Cultural and talent events
Competitions - public speaking, history bowl, and more.
There are many other chances to take part, like fundraising and other trips during the school year. GOYA is an amazing way to find another family of people who accept you for you.
