Or maybe you're not new. Maybe you've been around long enough to begin to know what you don't know yet - and you're anxious for some answers to the important questions you've run into.
No matter which category you're in, you are invited to
Level I of the Youth Ministry Leadership Training Program.
Level I covers the topics of:
Introduction to Catholic Youth Ministry
(including an overview of the vision of youth ministry, plus legal and liability issues)
Who Are Adolescents Today?
(and how do they develop - physically, emotionally, morally, spiritually?)
Relating to Youth
(how to connect with youth and still set appropriate boundaries)
Building Community with Youth
(it's not just about the newest icebreaker!)
Praying with Youth
(they'll go deep if we help lead them or let them!)
Join us!
