| Youth Ministry - What
We Do |
The Archdiocese of Glasgow traces
its Youth Ministry work back to the 1940's
with the founding of the Catholic Youth Council.
Over the intervening years we have worked
with many, many thousands of young people
in a variety of local, Scottish and international
projects.
Although the methods and approaches
have evolved, as the Church and the world
have changed, the central goal has always
been to enable young people to encounter the
living loving God and to respond generously
to the call of Jesus Christ. |

|
We support parish youth ministry
by providing training and formation for parish
leaders an opportunities for young people
to experience the Church beyond their local
parish. This work can be with any range of
young people from 12 to 30. |
| |
|
| We meet with young people aged
12-17 in their school settings, through a
variety of lower/upper school retreats, visits
and inputs. |
| |
|
We engage young adults aged
18-30 in a variety of ways: through higher
education chaplaincies, direct contact in
parishes, via newsletters, email bulletins
and website.
Also, some diocesan activities are hosted
at our Youth Pastoral Centre in Govanhill,
Glasgow. |
|
We work to support the faith
development of young people in the Archdiocese
of Glasgow.
This involves working directly
with young people in schools and parishes,
but also with others in the community who
have a role in the lives of young people (e.g.,
parents, teachers, parish clergy, religious
and lay people.) |
