SUMMARY:Exploring a Vision for Youth Ministry: Parish Teams (South)
DESCRIPTION:We all desire for young people to encounter Christ and to follow Him. Please plan on joining the Secretariat for Evangelization and Discipleship and Andrew Ministries for important discussions on the Archdiocese of Boston’s vision for youth ministry. Pastors and parish teams (staff and volunteers) are invited to attend one of the sessions (9/26\, 9/27\, or 9/28) that works best for you. \n  \nAs the Archdiocese of Boston is preparing to lower the age for the Sacrament of Confirmation\, this will have an impact on how we minister to our young people across our respective ministries.

SUMMARY:Exploring a Vision for Youth Ministry: Priests
DESCRIPTION:We all desire for young people to encounter Christ and to follow Him. \nPriests are invited to join the Secretariat for Evangelization and Discipleship and Andrew Ministries for this important discussion on the Archdiocese of Boston’s vision for youth ministry on September 11th.  Then\, plan on coming back with your parish teams (staff and volunteers) to one of the sessions (9/26\, 9/27\, or 9/28) that works best for you. \n  \nThe Catholic Church is losing our young people and our future depends on reversing this trend. Effective ministry to young people does not depend upon large budgets and paid staff to meet the needs of our youth. All pastors/priests/clergy are encouraged to attend a presentation on “The Art of Forming Young Disciples\,” by leading youth ministry expert\, Everett Fritz. During this presentation\, we will begin to discuss our long-term strategy for youth and campus ministry in the Archdiocese and how we are preparing to support this effort.
