Events for All Ages
The 2008
ACM has something for all of us - from the very youngest
to the oldest.
CanUUdle
VIII
CanUUdle VIII is a journey or rather a
RevolUUtion starting from within and moving into the
broader world re(examining, inventing) our approach to
change. Change can come in the form of wide social
movements or a simple shift in perspective. Each of
these changes is inherently valuable and should be
equally supported and nurtured. CanUUdle VIII is a
conference where youth and youth allies from across
Canada can explore new mediums and perspectives on this
this constantly changing world world, and how to
stimulate intentional change for the better. All done
within a ere of fun and positive empowerment with the
goal of inspiration. Join us for RevolUUtion CanUUdle
VIII as we bring down the house with inclusively,
radical fun and spirtual-tastic adventure.
If you have any comments, suggestions, questions as a
parent, youth, youth advisor or visitor please feel free

Youth and Youth Ministry Concurrent Sessions |
Sunday 2:45 pm - 4:15 pm
E6. Age in a Fishbowl: The purpose of this session
is to promote understanding and trust between youth and
adults. Traditionally this activity happens at youth
conferences. Fortunately, we’re not too attached to
tradition and see the value in sharing this exercise. In
this workshop, you will get the chance to ask questions,
gain insight, and learn the value of others’ perspectives
on a variety of issues. This is what multigenerational day
is all about!
