Welcome to
Network Northwest!

Greetings from the Northwest Regional Office of the National Network of Youth Ministries.

This website gives focus to Christian Youth Ministry in the Northwestern corner of the United States (Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington, Wyoming) and Western British Columbia. Additionally, we have links with ministry resources on a much broader level.

Our desire is to put you in touch with resources (people, events, materials) that will assist you in the mission of reaching teens for Christ. Also we encourage community networking by so doing you will find new friends who share the same heart for God and ministry creating synergy for The Cause. We are better together!

View Northwest events on our calendar page.

Meet with a Local Network
If you aren't meeting with a local Network of Youth Workers, fall is a great time to find a Network in your area. See YouthWorkers.net to join a Local Network. If you're a member, see if your Network is registered.

Network N.W. News and Notes


It's a Great Time for Connecting


How do you define a Youth Worker?
Within the Network we have normally thought of church and para-church leaders whether they are full, part-time or volunteer. But how about educators, coaches, social workers, etc.



If you are not currently connected to a local network check out www.youthworkers.net and see if there is one located near you. If not, consider starting one.

Also, begin to answer the questions :

How can I connect with others who are also working with youth in my community?
What might this look like?
What benefits and challenges would come with such an effort?
Would the impact in the lives of teens be greater?
If so, How?
If not, Why not?
