NETWORK Workshop: Igniting a Pastoral Vision for Ministry with Young People – A workshop for Priests, Religious, and Pastoral Staff

A virtual series for leaders and volunteers in Youth, Young Adult, and Family & Children Ministries

In these ever-changing times, envisioning our ministries for young people – youth, young adults, and families and children can be a daunting task if we have struggled to provide leadership for sustained approaches to ministry.  Whether your parish is taking the opportunity to journey with NETWORK Leader Seminars or not you don’t know where to begin, come and learn best practices, skills and opportunities to IGNITE your pastoral vision for young people in your parish and community.  This workshop is geared to pastors, religious, and pastoral staff.
