Training for Ministry with Young People

Two new video resources are available thanks to a dynamic partnership between the ELCA Youth Gathering and the ELCA Youth Ministry Network.  They are not actually related to the Gathering, but rather are focused on general training for ministry with young people.

The topics of the trainings are:

• Opportunity or Despair: The Landscape of Youth and Family Ministry, by Dr. Terri Elton of Luther Seminary in St. Paul, Minnesota. (http://elcaymnet.org/Video%20Resources/terrielton) 
  
• Youth Ministry Events as Faith Formation (Part I), by Shivon Miller of Trinity Lutheran Church in Duluth, Minnesota (http://elcaymnet.org/Video%20Resources/shivonmiller)

You can also download the PowerPoint presentations used in the videos. There is no cost to using these materials - they are made available as a gift to the church through the generosity of the ELCA Youth Gathering. We do ask that if you use the materials, please give proper credit to the authors, the ELCA and the Network.  Thank you!
