NFCYM 30th Anniversary PrayerIt's Our Thirtieth Anniversary: Celebrate and Pray with the NFCYM!

Thirty years ago, on January 20, 1982 at 11:17 a.m. in Malvern, Pennsylvania, a unanimous vote on a new name and structure by the National CYO Federation Advisory Board brought to life the National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry (NFCYM). Born out of the National CYO Federation at USCC and along with the Girl Scout Committee of the Advisory Board of the National CYO Federation, the newly incorporated NFCYM also included the National Catholic Committee on Girl Scouts and Camp Fire as a constitutive member. Recognizing the importance of our founding and the prophetic leaders who created the firm foundation on which we stand, please join us in prayer and thanksgiving for the abundant blessings bestowed upon the NFCYM and the young people we serve.

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.
