Catholic Youth Speaker, Youth Ministry

Posted on Monday, September 20th, 2010 at 5:24 am.

My name is Gary Foote I am a speaker for catholic youth ministry through retreats, pilgrimages, mentoring,  youth program consultation.  We need to keep the fire of God’s love burning in the hearts of our youth.  Too many youth ministers face the daunting task of running a youth ministry program on their own. Every ministry within the Church has its own unique elements, especially youth ministry. Youth ministers are charged with tasks of developing the spirituality of adolescents, planning retreats, coordinating social events, balancing a budget, fundraising, organizing mission trips, promoting diocesan events, continually forming adult volunteers, providing a safe environment, attending parish meetings, studying youth culture, arranging liturgies, visiting schools, keeping constant communication, and connecting with youth and their families in appropriate ways. Many times youth ministers cannot relate well with co-workers because youth ministry differs so much from other ministries. Yet, Jesus sent out His disciples two-by-two to evangelize, showing us the need for companionship as the Gospel is proclaimed. Through Youth Ministry Mentoring, I offer to youth ministers companionship and understanding as well as expert direction based upon years of education and successful experience. A well-mentored minister leads to thriving and lasting ministry.  Please visit my website at www.gary-foote.com for more information about my services.

Catholic Youth Speaker & Catholic Youth Retreats-Gary Foote

Posted on Monday, September 6th, 2010 at 5:53 am.

My name is Gary Foote and I work to spread the the Gospel of Christ through catholic retreats, catholic youth ministry programs and speaking engagements. Retreats can be one of the greatest assets to a youth ministry program. Unfortunately, they can also become a huge hurdle to a youth’s spiritual growth and a point of great stress for a youth minister. My approach to assisting a parish with a youth retreat is very different from most retreat leaders because I focus on a retreat’s long-term success and not just the retreat itself. Too often wonderfully trained retreat leaders offer powerful retreats, but once the retreat leader leaves, the youth return to a mundane faith. I will train willing adults in your parish and give them the opportunity to work with me to provide a dynamic retreat for your youth so that when I leave, your adult volunteers can continue the spiritual work we started together on retreat in your regular youth meetings throughout the year.  Please visit my website at www.gary-foote.com for lots more information.
