What is Youth Leadership Pathway?
Youth Leadership Pathway is a combination of online modules and in-person workshops designed for youth leaders in Perth’s Archdiocese.
As an Archdiocesan Youth Office, we encourage all parish-based youth leaders to complete the training; however, it is not compulsory.
Those who complete this training will be recognised as committed youth leader of the Archdiocese of Perth.
Our Goal
The Goal is to change our youth ministry culture steadily:
Passionate Youth Leaders
Program Oriented Youth Groups
Discipleship Oriented Youth Groups
Complacent Youth Leaders
Youth Leaders with a "Heart of Mission"
YLP's 4 Elements
To achieve our goal, we have set out 4 elements of YLP to help participating youth leaders grow:
'Incrementum'
Online Modules
In-Person Workshops
Discipleship Support
'Incrementum'
Incrementum (latin) – Growth, Development, Increase, Augment
Otherwise known as a Spiritual Life Journal, INCREMENTUM will be your day to day partner, counsellor, helper, friend and guide!
It’s not quite the Holy Spirit, but as a journal/book, this is where you would spend most of your time reflecting and answering deep, meaningful questions.

Keep it, use it, grow alongside it!
Online Modules
Much like most learning courses that you can find, YLP provides talks in an online lecture format for you to watch.
Listen to relevant topics from experienced and notable speakers as you go along this faith journey with INCREMENTUM.
Best of all, you can do it on your own time and schedule!
_
Watch, listen, apply!
In-Person Workshops
Faith by itself, if it has no works, is dead (James 2:17)
Hence, words without action are just words, lectures without workshops are not as effective!
YLP brings both to the table so that you can apply what you learn/reflected in a practical manner.

Step-by-step we transform!
Discipleship Support
Among all the elements, this may just be the most impactful.
YLP provides smalls groups and one-on-one mentoring guidance and support, so you will not get lost in this pathway.
Reach out, question and be open to the hands that are here to help you get to where God wants you to be in your faith and ministry.

Walk with confidence, as we got your back!
We also provide a more in-depth structure overview of the YLP program in PDF form. Please take a look for more information.
To cover for the 4 elements above, the YLP program asks for a once-off fee of $50.
This helps us ensure a good experience for participants in their journey for the year.
