Resource Library

Looking for a youth ministry resource, youth study material, or a good read for your youth? Check out our Youth Ministry Resource Library in the Youth Office at the Chancery! We have a wide selection of books, DVD's, and samples of youth ministry resources, youth study materials, and Confirmation resources. Below is a full list of the different titles and resources we have.

**Please note that the resource material we have available are for previewing and sampling.  Checked out resources may not be used directly in your youth program but may be used for consideration of subscribing to a particular resource. For example, if a parish is interested in subscribing to Life Teen, they may check-out our LifeTeen material to preview and if they find it would be useful for their program, they can subscribe to LifeTeen.  However, they would not be allowed to use the Youth Office's copy of the resource to directly implement in their youth program.
