The NFCYM Minute

The NFCYM announces the launch of The NFCYM Minute. The NFCYM Minute, a free monthly subscription, is geared towards people interested in Catholic youth ministry and/or the NFCYM. Readers are invited to Learn, Look, Pray, Connect, and Explore topics, resources, or themes related to the Catholic faith, youth ministry, and/or the NFCYM.

Most importantly, The NFCYM Minute does not replace the Connected Bulletin for NFCYM members. The Connected Bulletin will continue to be a primary source of organizational news and detailed program and resource information for diocesan, collaborating, and NCCGSCF members.

Sign up today (with the form to the right) to receive The NFCYM Minute and then forward it to your local distribution lists of youth ministry leaders, volunteers, and parents, etc.
