Meet the DLTs: Peter Lagueras

October 29, 2019 / By Peter Lagueras

My name is Peter Lagueras and I am the lay leader of the Genesee Valley District. As the District Lay Leader, I have been a part of the District Leadership Team (DLT) because of my position. This is my second year serving on DLT. We have helped plan and organize many different events for the District including the Inform to Transform and the recently finished Bishop’s Retreat. The best thing about serving on DLT is working with such a diverse group of people. They all come from different backgrounds and have many different interests and we can help meet the needs of the people of the District.

My heart and passion is helping youth ministries and trying to get young people more involved in District events as well as reaching out and connecting with churches that are no longer involved with the District Committee on Youth Ministries (DCYM). It has been a pleasure working with Mary Anderson and Christine Mitchell these last couple of months as we are developing a youth event in November called Destination Games: Our Journey with God.
