Million Minutes is a Catholic youth agency. We promote an inclusive and collaborative youth ministry, where the voices of young people are centred.
We are working towards a world where young people take transformative social action, with an understanding of Catholic Social Teaching.
We equip the Church to more effectively accompany all young people by:
LISTENING: Creating safe listening environments and facilitating conversations on the needs of young people and youth services.
RESPONDING: Raising awareness of the needs of young people, co-creating solutions with them, and identifying collaborators to support a response.
EMPOWERING: Creating activities that develop young peoples’ skills and confidence and providing a platform to express themselves.
CELEBRATING: Creating opportunities to affirm and thank young people, recognising their valuable contributions to social change.
Celebrating Young People: Revival is a 6-step project centred on listening to the voices of young people, responding to them, empowering and celebrating them.
This fully resourced programme is ideal for any group of young people in schools or parishes. Click here to find out more.
Agents of Change is a Million Minutes leadership programme bringing together young people (aged 15-18) from across the UK to explore peace, justice, faith, and social action. Through a residential training weekend, mentoring, and a national showcase event, participants develop confidence, leadership skills, and a stronger sense of how they can create positive change in their schools, parishes, and communities.
