Members from the archdiocesan Youth Ministry of Church Mission and Life Teen Aotearoa teams came together in May to run a weekend in Wellington, called ‘Empower Youth Ministry Training’.
Youth ministers, junior leaders, clergy, and parish leaders teamed up to develop youth ministry skills and to learn how to better support young people. The weekend was full of inspiration and sharing practical tips for ministry, personal testimonies, and support for one another.
‘We were blessed to have the Sacraments at the centre of everything we did, with Mass, Reconciliation, prayer and worship throughout the programme,’ said Louise Lloyd, co-ordinator for the Archdiocese Youth Ministry of Church Mission.
‘We are incredibly lucky to have such wonderful youth ministers in the Wellington archdiocese, committed to sharing God’s love and joy among young people. I can’t wait to see all the great things they continue to do in their ministries,’ said Louise.
