This is a national ministry, held annually, that consists of
onsite workshops for youth and youth ministers in the
national black Catholic community.  Our vision is to
enrich or establish youth ministries in the many places
that send representatives to Sankofa.  It might even
mean setting up "youth mission bands" with local youth
preachers, poets, artists, musicians, clowns, etc. that
can offer quality retreat experiences for young black
Catholics in our dioceses.  

Youth ages 8 - 18 enjoy lifting up their hands in praise
when gathered together to fellowship and praise the
Lord with their peers.  They praise and worship the Lord
through song, dance, bible study reflections, and
dialogue on how to walk with Christ daily in a world filled
with peer pressure.

The Sankofa Youth, Young Adult, and Family Summits
are held annually the last weekend in April.  The 2008
Sankofa Summit will be April 25 - 27 in Orlando, Florida.
It's a good fun time for all attendees.
