Young adults from around the world gathered for the opening of the Young Adult Festival on Thursday, July 9 at the Doubletree Hotel.  

“Tonight you could see the excitement everyone has to get involved in the political process and make our presence felt,” said Sarah Tomlinson, an international festival participant from Scotland. “I don’t think we’re going to be quiet while we’re here.” 

The Festival runs through Monday, July 13. Follow the festival via episcopalcommons.org/yaf and look for this newsletter outside the Convention Center every morning.
