Believe it or not, it's time to start preparing for NCYC 2003.  Get ready to navigate the River of Life in Houston, Texas, from November 13th-16th with 25,000 of your closest friends!  Thankfully, CYM has been able to assemble a comprehensive, high quality NCYC package at a cost lower than that offered in other Dioceses in our region.  Package costs will be $650.00 for quad occupancy lodging, and $700.00 for triple occupancy lodging.  All event information, package details, registration instructions, and general information are online at http://www.cdowcym.org/ncyc/.  Visit the site today to begin your parish/school's journey to Houston.

There's still time to register for the Get Connected! workshop on April 5th at Neumann College.  CYM is co-sponsoring this training opportunity with Ministry Training Source--a pioneer in online education in Youth Ministry.  This one-day workshop is designed to help youth ministers from all walks of life integrate technology effectively in their ministry. The workshop will cover use of PowerPoint, Online Communications (e-mail and other applications), and development of web pages.  For only $25.00, you will receive a generous supply of resource materials (including a feature-filled CD-ROM), use of a computer for the entire day, expert instruction, and lunch.  To sign up or for more information, contact Anthony Albence at (302) 658-3800 x12 or via e-mail at aalbence@cdow.org. Or get a flyer at www.cdowcym.org/pdf/getcon.pdf.   

Regardless of your personal views on War, to ignore this subject with your young people would be silly -- they need to talk and process. Last week we provided you with some resources we've located, which may be helpful. These resources can be found at www.cdowcym.org/laddersonline/laddersSI.htm.
