Resourcing

CYM is committed to the development of resources that will equip the church for ministry with children, young people, their families, and communities.

We are delighted that the Grandparenting for Faith courses are available from July 2025, in partnership with BRF/Parenting for Faith.

We have two online courses available, for you to complete on your own or gather others to discuss together.

• One is for Christian grandparents and grandparent-figures, comprising six sessions, which you can complete on your own or with others – lots of ideas, inspiration and encouragement in the video content, to help you to feel more confident in sharing Jesus with the children and young people you love most. Cost £30

• A single session course for church leaders/church representatives to help you to equip and empower grandparents and grandparent-figures in your church (1.5 – 2 hours long, depending how long you pause to reflect). Cost £15

Your Faith, Your Online World

We have published a free resource for local churches called Youth Faith, Your Online World. This is a multi-denominational project, aimed to support young people across the U.K to explore, reflect and manage their experience of navigating faith in an online world. This is a guidance pack tailored for church youth leaders and volunteers, to facilitate discussions with young people.This has been created with a team of safeguarding professionals from the Methodist Church, The Baptist Union, The Moravian Church, and The Quakers of Great Britain.
