Building Urban Youth Programs
Urban Youth Worker Certificate Class
October 10-18
6:30pm-9:30pm Weeknights & 8:30am-3:30pm Sat
at CUME
Dr. Craig McMullen
The fourth course in the Urban Youth Worker Certificate program.
This course explores various models of urban youth programs: church and
para-church will be examined. Principles, such as the Ten Stages,
suggested in the first course will be further developed. Field trips
would great enhance this course; certainly various program leaders
should be called in as visiting presenters. Emphasis should be put on
the reasoned process by which a model of youth ministry should be
developed in different contexts and situations.
