The National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry (NFCYM) is hosting several webinars (some free) for those in Youth Ministry to support and strengthen those who accompany young people as they encounter and follow Jesus Christ.
This webinar is free and open to all – spread the word!
Presented by Chris Wesley and Moderated by Michael Theisen
If you are brand new to ministry, whether volunteer or paid, it’s important to know where to begin. To reach the young Church with limited resources and support, we have not just to work harder but smarter. That means going into your first year of ministry with the wisdom to slow down and talk with the people around you to learn how to focus on what matters most. This webinar will take the new leader through some of the first things you need to do and know to build a healthy and sustainable ministry, including:
Leadership that is leading and feeding
Building a dynamic team of volunteers
Clarity around the role and partnership with parents
A student leadership pipeline
Sustainable and Intentional ministry structures
Following the webinar, Michael Theisen will debut NFCYM’s new online training program “First Things: A Formative Journey for New Youth Ministry Leaders” which will begin this fall. Learn how parishes, dioceses, and even regions can support their brand new ministry leaders (whether paid or volunteer) so they get started on the right track by doing the first things, first.
