RE-OPENING THE PARISH: A CASE STUDY
What are the practical and intentional steps needed to prepare a parish for re-opening? How will the community respond? What unexpected situations should a pastoral staff anticipate? Key staff members from St. Anthony of Padua parish in the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston have a number of the answers to these questions, and more. In preparation of re-opening on May 2, they created a video for their parishioners to prepare for Mass in the COVID-19 era (view it at: https://vimeo.com/413843353).

LIVING FAITH AMID COVID-10 OUTBREAK SỐNG ĐỨC TIN GIỮA CƠN ĐẠI DỊCH COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic presents a wide range of challenges for parents and youth ministers across parishes. Parents must now balance between work, child care, tutoring, self-care, and living faith. Youth ministers are confronted with one of the challenge of finding ways to lead and accompany the youth to live their faith when church doors are closed. In an effort to support and to journey with parents and youth ministers, NFCYM in collaboration with the VEYM invite you to a webinar with invited guests to discuss best practices and effective ways to overcome this most difficult time.

BEING A FAITH COMPANION FOR YOUTH WHILE THEY ARE AT HOME
We are called to accompany youth in life and faith. Young people in our parishes need faith companions in this moment more than ever. Like the disciples on the road to Emmaus, we can accompany youth amidst their confusion and discouragement. We can listen to their questions, witness to faith, and empower them as young disciples. We will share a vision for accompanying youth at home, along with practical resources for providing each young person with companions who can provide pastoral care and witness to their faith in ways that respond to the new environment of the COVID-19 pandemic. This webinar will utilize resources developed over the last 18 months of the Accompaniment Project which is provided by NFCYM and the Center for Ministry Development.
Presented by: Tom East, Director of the Center for Ministry Development

RE-CONNECTING AMERICA’S LONELIEST GENERATION
Today’s young people are more isolated than any previous generation despite being more connected than ever before. Raised in an era of widespread institutional distrust, they long for meaningful relationships with caring adults as the antidote to pervasive isolation. The old forms of connecting with young people through programs are no longer effective. Springtide Research Institute’s national study of 13-25 year-olds confirms that new models are needed. In this presentation, you’ll see exactly how to create a culture of belonging in your organizations and learn the role you can play in turning the tide on social isolation among young people.
Presented by Dr. Josh Packard, Springtide Research Institute
