PMIN 3358 Youth and Young Adult Ministry

This course looks at the special challenges involved in catechizing youth and young adults, especially Hispanics who are now the majority of Catholics under the age of 18. Rooted in the Church's framework for a comprehensive ministry to youth, the course introduces models and methods for age-appropriate catechesis, leadership formation, and pastoral care. The Church's documents on Hispanic Ministry help to formulate timely and relevant pastoral plans for Latino youths and young adults living in an era of great technological and social change. The course provides concrete strategies that recognize the challenges without overlooking the problems or diminishing fidelity to the Gospel.
