For over 50 years, Allegheny Mennonite Conference (AMC) has devoted time, energy, staff and resources toward children and youth as one if its highest priorities for conference life. In 1979, the first paid staff person was engaged to oversee children and youth activities, along with co-sponsoring summer camps at Laurelville Mennonite Church Center in Mt. Pleasant, Pennsylvania. I have been privileged to serve in this position for the last 18 years.
