Our Mission Statement

The Bishop's Council for Youth Ministry supports youth ministry in the diocese of Northampton.  In partnership with young people and those that work with them, we actively encourage the personal and spiritual growth of our young people in their relationship with Jesus Christ and each other.

Our Aims

To empower local church communities in their mission to call young people into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ

To enable young people to participate fully in the life of the Catholic community, recognising the intrinsic value of youth and all it has to offer to the Church

To encourage young people to grow to their full potential, developing a life of prayer and spirituality, so that they can live as disciples in the world today, rooted in the living tradition of the Church
