GOYA (Greek Orthodox Youth of America) is a dynamic ministry for Orthodox Christian teens in grades 7 through 12, designed to nurture their spiritual growth, personal development, and connection to the Church. Through a balance of worship, fellowship, service, and witness, GOYA helps young people deepen their understanding of the Orthodox faith and apply it to their daily lives. Guided by clergy, youth advisors, and parent volunteers, GOYA members participate in regular meetings, Bible studies, and discussions that encourage faith formation and moral responsibility.
Beyond spiritual enrichment, GOYA offers opportunities for service, fellowship, and leadership. Whether participating in service projects, sports tournaments, or social events, teens learn the values of compassion, teamwork, and responsibility. With Christ at the center of all activities, GOYA equips young people to become active members of the Church and faithful stewards of their faith in the world around them.
