Renewing the Vision- In 1976, the bishops issued their seminal document A
Vision of Youth Ministry, combining the best of Catholic traditions with
emerging ideas from Church leaders across the nation. Two decades later,
confronted by the challenges of an ever-changing world, the bishops enlarged
that vision with the publication of Renewing the Vision. This volume provides
all who minister to young people with an effective blueprint for building a
truly meaningful ministry, centered on three important goals: to empower young
people to live as disciples of Jesus Christ; to draw young people to responsible
participation in the life, mission, and work of the Church; and to foster the
total personal and spiritual growth of each young person.
