Songs for Youth Ministry
Music is a powerful way of sharing the Gospel with teens. Music speaks directly to the heart, and settles in our souls. Music removes barriers, leads us into prayer, and unites us as a community. And music goes everywhere with your teens – school, home, and elsewhere. They can take the Gospel wherever they journey, and know that God is with them! All for God has surveyed Catholic youth ministers and youth to find the songs that teens respond to. Here is a list of 100+ songs to use in your ministry. We’ve added themes and scripture references, as well as suggested artists to you integrate music more fully into your youth ministry. So check it out and share your feedback and suggestions with us.

Recommended Technology Guidelines for Pastoral Work with Young People (PDF)
In the interest of making the use of technology safe for young people and ministry leaders, the National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry (NFCYM) offers the following guidelines, recommendations, and best practices as a supplement to what may already exist, or as a template for formulating policies. This document provides guidance to pastoral ministers on the use of various technologies, and as an aid to pastoral ministers and diocesan, parish, and/or school personnel in determining appropriate boundaries in their use of technology within their professional relationships with others. These are merely guidelines and suggestions for use, and are not meant to be interpreted as definitive policy. Additional information is also available through the NFCYM website.
