Catholic Youth Ministry

SlideShare


SlideShare.net Rocks! Here's a collection of power points important for Catholic Youth Ministry.  Some are mine - - as part of the FirstUp series of trainings, such as September's Refocusing Catholic Youth Ministry.  Others are just cool and worth a look!.



 

www.catholicYMblog.com has been affirmed as the "411 of Catholic Youth Ministry." Really, it is a simple little BLOG from one corner of the Catholic Youth Ministry field.

Also, please check out:

A weekly podcast (every Wednesday) visiting with youth ministry leaders about discipleship, best moments, and pizza preferences.

The Archdiocese of Baltimore sponsored a "Bishops' Summit on the Sacrament of Confirmation". This site holds the videos, podcasts, hand-outs and blogging related to the event.

DID YOU KNOW? 
  Another SlideShare moment.  Shift is happening. . . are we ready for it? Who is the richest in the world,  has the largest military, is the center of world business and finance, with the strongest education system, serves as the world center on innovation and invention, with a currency as the world standard of values, and has the highest standard of living. USA!  USA! USA! but, it was England in the 1900's and might it eventually become India and/or China later in the 2000's? Shift is happening. [slideshare]

POWER POINT BASICS
  And this is why SlideShare.net is rocking my world right now.  The ability to freely share information, provide training, and posit a latest theory in a non-gathered venue is revolutionary. SlideShare also allows audio to be attached as well. Surely, the .ppt file attached here may very well have been a 45 minute presentation.  You can get all the info you need from it in a five minute review.   Slide to note: (16) How presentations work ? Significance creates passion Passion attract attention ? Attention leads to action   [slideshare]

FIRST UP - - THE "DRAFT" EDITION
  Next month, we will start a new feature here on the site.  A power point with audio on a catholic youth ministry topic that was prepared exclusively for the web site. In the meantime, here's the prototype of what we plan to achieve. You have a quickie power point tour of the web site accompanied by an even less intentional .mp3 audio.  On September 1, this new feature will be first-up for the month and we'll really give this thing a real work-out then.
