FaithStreams Network and Disciples Now have allied to provide expanded offerings for Catholic youth ministry on the web. Disciples Now, a collaborating member of the National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry, is a leading web site for teens, young adults, and youth ministers. FaithStreams Network provides web-based solutions that help congregations enhance communications and deepen member engagement. DisciplesNow.com will maintain its current web address.
Disciples Now Ministries, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization, which is a web-based ministry focused on the traditions, life, and mission of the Catholic faith community. Leadership for Disciples Now is provided by a board of directors. The organization is closely affiliated with the Archdiocese of Baltimore which oversees the catechetical content.
Disciples Now Ministries was formed by a group of youth ministry professionals in Baltimore, MD, in July 1999. The web site debuted at the National Catholic Youth Conference in November of that year. Since then, volunteers have enhanced and expanded the organization’s initiative. They are supported by a diverse group of consultants from across the country representing various facets of Catholic ministry and technology.
