The Shrewsbury Youth Mission Team is guided by Bishop Mark Davies, who in his vision for the Diocese of Shrewsbury, has established this ministry team. The team themselves have well over 30 years of Youth Ministry experience and have all worked with a wide variety young people across the country and beyond. They all share a love for their Catholic faith, and a love for young people. They work alongside hundreds of wonderful Parish Youth Volunteers and Clergy throughout the Diocese who all want to see young people brought closer to Jesus Christ and His Church.
