From Renewing the Vision: Ministry with adolescents utilizes each of the Church’s ministries—advocacy, catechesis, community life, evangelization, justice and service, leadership development, pastoral care, prayer and worship—in an integrated approach to achieve the three goals for ministry.

First articulated in A Vision of Youth Ministry, these ministry components describe the “essence” of ministry with adolescents and provide the Church with eight fundamental ways to minister effectively with adolescents. Today, in light of our National Strategy on Vocations, we add vocational discernment to the “essence” of ministry with adolescents.

Today, ArchBalt will be hosting a Summit on Vocations.  Your prayers would be appreciated!
