Save the Date: August 4th - 9th, 2025 Youth Rally! Come join the Orthodox youth from across the diocese as we meet at the St. Methodios Center in NH for another year of Youth Rally! Old veteran or first timer, every year is new! Come and experience an Orthodox camp where the kids can grow in faith and build strong Orthodox friendships! Apply to camp here: Youth Ministry | Diocese of New England.


A Message from Fr. Moses Locke, Youth Rally Director: we are thankful you are considering coming to Youth Rally. If you have been to past Rallies, you know it is an unforgettable experience. If you have not attended, you will surely discover that coming to Rally is something you will look forward to year after year. It is a time of meeting and making friends who share your Orthodox Faith, developing relationships, discovering new things about your Faith, the Church, yourself, and others whom you meet during Rally, and having lots of fun in the process. There is plenty to do at Youth Rally. In addition to time for learning, there is time for activities such as swimming, sports & field games, arts & crafts, trail-walking, and more. We also plan to take an afternoon and evening to go to Canobie Lake Park, a really great amusement park located close to the campgrounds. We hope you’ll join us this year at Youth Rally. Please consider it strongly. You won’t regret it!

The Diocese of New England Youth Rally is an event at which diocesan youth come together in a camp setting for Orthodox Christian education, fellowship, and worship. It is a time for learning more about our Orthodox Faith and applying it in the world in which we live. It is also a time for making or renewing friendships, and for having fun! Youth Rally is hosted at the Saint Methodios Faith and Heritage Center, 329 Camp Merrimac Rd, Contoocook, NH 03229, a beautiful camp and retreat center. The event spans the entire week from August 4th through August 9th, and it is for children of ages 9–17. The firm deadline for registrations is Friday, July 11th, 2025.
