Youth Ministry is one of the three areas of ministry on which Bishop McGrath has asked parishes to concentrate.
As an introduction, the following quote provides insight into what the Catholic Church means by Youth Ministry.
“What is needed today is a church which knows how to respond to the expectations of young people. Jesus wants to enter into dialogue with them and, through his body, which is the church, to propose the possibility of a choice, which will require a commitment of their lives. As Jesus with the disciples of Emmaus, so the church must become the traveling companion of young people...” (Pope John Paul II, World Youth Day 1995, Philippines)
