Team 2010/2011 – Applications now being taken
The Briars and Reach4 are seeking applicants for next years residential and outreach team.
Reach4 is the Outreach Ministry Team of the Nottingham Diocesan Catholic Youth Service. The team is led by Tom Baptist, Eleanor Gambini, Sinéad Mannion and Marsha Cotter.
It was created in response to comments from people around the diocese during our 2006 service review. Many young people and leaders asked for more assistance in youth ministry and for a more ‘hands on’ approach from the Youth Service.
Reach4 is all about working with young people on their own level and their own turf; bringing the message to the young people of today in a way they can relate to and in situations that they can understand.
The team is dedicated to serving young people in the church and catering for the needs of everyone. The menu of programmes is ever growing and examples of work so far can be found on the Services page. Programmes can cover team building activities, confirmation preparation, catechist support, chaplaincy support, music, worship, preparation and follow-up to Briars visits, support for parish youth groups and much more!
To find out more about what ‘reach4′ can do for you then download the menu via the Services page, or get in touch with us. You can email us on reach4@ndcys.com , or call us on our direct line at 01773 856115.
The Youth Service can still provide and signpost advice and support, training and assistance for youth ministry in the diocese. Please contact Father Joe for more details.
