Network Structure Changes

At the monthly SAYW meeting on June 5, 2008 it was announced that there has been a shift in the structure of the Network’s leadership. Here is a note from Dave Hertweck:

Hey youth workers,

At the meeting this past thursday I announced that I would be stepping down as director of SAYW due to increased responsibilities on a denominational level – it really has been a true joy to serve you and with you for the purpose of impacting teenagers and equipping youth workers – I am glad that I will have the opportunity to stay a part of the leadership team but in a different role.

Rich Ryfun (Believers’ Chapel) will be stepping in as network director – I have a great amount of respect for him as a leader and as a friend – he is the right person at the right time and I am excited about the Network’s future.

Jon Rogers (North Central AG) has served faithfully and excellently as our creative ideas guy for 3-4 years now…he’s in school full time now and feels the need to step down from his position… Chris Szulwach (Liverpool Community) will be taking his place.

So a lot of changes are happening but the faces around the table are the same

We also have restructured the leadership as described below in the notes from the June meeting (note an additional new part of the leadership team – Todd Pearage (North Syracuse Baptist):

There are 4 teams that are being redesigned and 1 new team being added. The purpose of these teams are to get each youth leader involved in SAYW and allow them to participate in a team that they have heart and passion for.

• The first team is Relationship, which is led by Chuck Klinger from Northside Baptist Church. This team will create occasional relationship building events and connect youth pastors who are new in the area.

• The Resource team is led by Todd Pearage from North Syracuse Baptist Church. This team will develop a list of local, state-wide, and national resources, as well as highlight monthly resources.

• The Presence team is led by Dave Hertweck from Trinity Assembly of God. This team will represent SAYW on a community wide level, oversee community service, community trainings, and coordinate See You At The Pole events.

• The 4th team is Outreach and is led by Rich Ryfun at Believers’ Chapel. This team will oversee Syracuse Tour, Youth Alive Clubs, and BreakOut.

• The final team is the Creative team led by Chris Szulwach from Liverpool Community Church. This team will produce any needed material for events, produce graphics, create a SAYW website, and produce a monthly newsletter.

If you would like more information or are interested in joining one of these teams please see the SAYW Leadership Team Descriptions to retrieve contact information (or utilize the contact page) of each team leader. We look forward to seeing what God is going to do with the Syracuse Area Youth Workers. Our main goal is to connect Youth Workers with each other and to connect them with the community to bring more souls to Christ.

So, don’t miss out on this opportunity… get involved!
