NFCYM seeks to be at the forefront of initiatives that empower young people and the ministers who accompany them. In line with this ongoing commitment, we are thrilled to announce the launch of an updated curriculum for “First Things in Youth Ministry”.
The revised “First Things” curriculum reflects the evolving needs of our youth and the challenges faced by our youth ministry leaders. Recognizing these dynamics, the curriculum focuses on best practices and integrates feedback from previous participants to ensure a holistic and effective learning experience.
The six modules of the updated curriculum are:
This update was made possible due to the collaborative efforts of a dedicated project team comprising NFCYM members and a generous grant from TenX10. This synergy between NFCYM and TenX10 exemplifies the power of collaboration in amplifying our mission’s impact.
As we celebrate today’s dual milestones, we invite all youth ministry leaders, church leaders, and parents to explore the refreshed “First Things in Youth Ministry” and join us in our quest to make young voices an integral and vibrant part of our communities.
