The resources keep coming!  Youth Ministry the latest

ROME:  28 July 2005 -- The website for the EAO Region has added further resources on the Salesian Brother with next year's Seminar in mind.  There's every chance this Seminar will take place in Cambodia in August of next year, but all that is yet to be confirmed after various discussions have taken place.  There are additional responses to the questionnaire sent around the region, and some additional documents available on Bosconet.
    A completely new section has been added in reference to Youth Ministry.  Next year will also see a meeting of Provincials and Youth Ministry Delegates, the last of which was held in Lysterfiled, Melbourne, in 2003.  There is now abundant material stemming from that meeting, but with the addition of YM models and practices from other parts of the region.  Obviously this will be added to, but there is already plenty there to begin with, including a number of powerpoint presentations.  You access all of this from the home page of www.bosconet.aust.com Go to the respective sector on the right-hand side of the page and click the link.
    Youth Ministry is an area where many confreres are busy at work developing their own local resources - and 'youth ministry' is an extensive term!  It would be wonderful if individuals could share (1) their stories of initiatives and experiences and (2) any materials they have developed.  It is enough to send the stories or the materials directly to this address and they will be added to the resources.  The stories can be written up in your own style - we will refashion them for publication purposes, so you have no need to worry about your English - and you can write in any of your languages if you wish and leave it to us to find someone to translate if we don't know the language.  But animation materials will be left in the language of origin.  If others wish to use them, they can have them translated.
