NOT SURE WHICH OPTION IS BEST FOR YOU?

"Edge resources empower me as youth minister and my core team of volunteers to spend our planning time effectively preparing for nights that are impactful and create the most space for meaningful relationships to form."

"Life Teen’s resources have allowed our parish to have sustained youth ministry for over 25+ years. Life Teen resources have kept us thriving over the years because they continue to produce new and fresh content. Life Teen’s commitment to staying close to the young has kept their resources relevant in ever changing teen culture."

One of the things I love most about the Lifeteen resources is how easy it makes planning and pulling a Life Night or EDGE Night together. One of the most fundamental truths of youth ministry is that it takes a whole team to do it successfully.

The Kickstart program has been a wonderful blessing for our parish as we started our journey into youth ministry. We knew there was a need, we had volunteers and parish support, and the excitement from our community, but we did not know how to start! We turned to Life Teen as we felt they were a trusted source.

RESOURCE FOR HIGH SCHOOL: KICKSTART & LIFE SUPPORT MIDDLE SCHOOL: EDGE SUPPORT
LIFE NIGHT PLANNING GUIDE The Life Night Planning Guide contains expertly crafted Life Nights that span the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops' framework for high school religious education. Teenagers have the opportunity to grow closer to Christ and receive new knowledge about the faith while experiencing rich prayer traditions of the Church. This approach provides a well-rounded catechesis and growth in fellowship over the course of four years.
KICKSTART CURRICULUM GUIDE The Kickstart Curriculum Guide is easily implemented in a smaller youth ministry setting. Through compelling sessions, Kickstart incorporates the major framework pieces of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops through eight signature Life Nights each semester. With quick setups, detailed instructions, and coaching tips, Life Teen Kickstart helps your small team of dedicated core members connect with today’s teenagers.
EDGE SEMESTER PLANNING GUIDE The Semester Planning Guide presents questions and explores the answers found in the teachings, doctrine, devotions, and practices of Catholicism.
