The People

The Disciples Youth Ministry Network is a partnership of ordained and licensed persons working in full-time youth ministry, to connect, and provide or create resources, across congregational, regional, and general church borders.

DYMN is bigger than any of our events.  The connections we share span geographic regions, time, and memory.  New members are constantly attending, while others choose to take the retreats when they best fit their situations.

The same is true of our leadership team.  As our job situations, life circumstances, and vocations shift, our leadership team discerns whether this is a ministry to which they’re still called.  Our 2010 DYMN Planning Team includes:
