At the beginning of each year, our office offers a New DYM Orientation to equip Directors of Youth Ministry to build a safe and effective youth ministry program. This orientation took place last week at the Chancery and included an introduction to diocesan policy, an explanation of resources available to them, and an overview of the diocesan vision for youth ministry. Our goal is to help DYMs who are new to the Diocese get started on the right foot and make decisions that allow them to remain effective in youth ministry for many years to come. Please keep these DYMs in your prayers in the year ahead as they minister to young people in the Diocese of Arlington! The presentation by Kevin Bohli also counts as the first of 22 courses which make up our two-year Youth Ministry Certificate Program. If you are interested in working towards a certificate in this nationally accredited program that we offer in collaboration with Franciscan University of Steubenville, please contact our office!

More than 80 Diocese of Arlington Directors of Youth Ministry (DYMs) and youth ministry leaders gathered yesterday at St. Mark Catholic Church in Vienna for this year’s DYM Summit, a great opportunity to pray, learn, build community, and prepare for the year ahead. The day included a reveal of the annual theme, an overview of upcoming events and initiatives, Mass celebrated by Fr. Jamie Workman, Vicar General, and time with Bishop Burbidge who shared words of encouragement and gratitude. Keynote Joel Stepanek helped the DYMs to reflect upon their trust in Jesus and shared strategies to deepen their trust in him. Each participant received a complimentary mug featuring this year’s theme, “Take Courage!”, which was put to good use for their morning coffee and at the afternoon coffee bar. Please keep these leaders in your prayers in the year ahead as they accompany young people and families and help them encounter Christ.
