Inspired Faith is a series of facilitated conversations on topics that matter for leaders in children's, youth, and family ministry.  Hosted on zoom, these are open to anyone who is interested in participating! 

Depending on the content and structure of the session, sometimes we record the session and post it here for those who are not able to participate live. Even if the session isn't posted, any resources that accompany the session will be posted. 

If you have an idea for a future topic, we'd love to hear it! Please send it to Allie at youthandfamily@nspeidiocese.ca.
