Youth Ministry

Changing Lives
Transformational Ministry
and Today's Teens

By Lisa-Marie Calderone-Stewart

Imagine ministry with unstoppable momentum -like Pentecost! When teens are invited to learn from every experience, reflect on their learning, apply it to their decisions, and act in a spirit of service, they are transformed. This Transform-ational Ministry creates a continuing spiral of growth--in learning, prayer, leadership, and service.

Writing in a conversational style that includes stories and examples from her own work with youth, educator Lisa-Marie Calderone-Stewart offers a practical way to invite young people to be present and future Church leaders.
