An Old School Catholic Message Board

Competition!

Ok so here's the test....
I work as part of a youth ministry team in Hamilton, New Zealand (if you don't know where that is grab an atlas, find Australia and then go south east). We are trying to find a name for youth ministry in Hamilton so we can brand it and market it. All our advertising and camps and stuff need to have a common logo so it can start to become better recognised.

This is where you all come in! Find us a cool name. It needs to be different, a little obscure, VERY Catholic. So not "Hamilton Catholic Youth Ministry"!

A few ideas we have had already but are pretty lame are; "Camel Hair ministries", "De Ecclesia", um that's about it.

So go for it! The prize will be knowing that you have named a diocesian youth ministry team in some far off country...and we might send you a T-Shirt or something!

Rebirth flame

hmmmm....

maybe something Eucharist centered... like BOLD Youth Ministries (BOLD being an acronymn for Bread of Life Discourse, cuz it rocks!)...

is your youth group centered around anything...? example: the youth group i belong to is centered around Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, and so our websites name is We Adore...

How about there in New Zealand...? Whats the major focus of your youth group...?

God Bless!!!

When I was a kid I wanted to start a punk rock band called either "Botched Facelift" or "the Shaving Accidents." You can have that. ;)

I know! It's so hard! But we're not Australian, so anything Australia is not good (think of what goes on between the US and Canada, sorta the same thing between NZ and Australia!)

It's not a youth group it's a name for the whole diocesian youth ministry team, so it's pretty big. Something Eucharistic would rock!

Botched facelift :) lol. I'll tell my boss that one, it's even better than Camel Hair Ministries!

But you're all on the right track! Plenty of strange stuff. It needs to be something that makes people go "what the?......oh I get it!"

Thanks for your suggestions so far

Thy Geekdom Come

Hmmm...I only know my Latin...

There is a youth group in Omaha called "Refiner's Fire"...dopeness...

How about "Monstrance"? I pray sometimes after Communion that God will make us human monstrances, i.e. that He will shine forth through us and that we will see Christ in each other. Of course, it kinda sounds like "monstrous", lol...

Let me know if you need to know any Latin...

Gasp! Shock horror! :freak: How could you mix us up?!? *faints in horror*

Na, it's all fun and games really. But the two countries are REALLY different, Australia is huge, dusty, flat and the people talk funny. New Zealand is tiny, green, mountainous and the people talk properly :)
Have a look at [url="http://www.newzealand.com/"]http://www.newzealand.com/[/url].
Yes I know what you're thinking...we are sooo big we have our own website, all 45 of us :)

But aaaanyway...
Zion is good with the short thing. Mmmm yes I like. Feel the power! It sorta lacks the Catholic thing though. But I'll still send you a T-Shirt just cause you're from Canada! Claudine, you're just cool!

We played with "Monstrance" for a while...."Monstrance Ministries" etc. Kinda sounds like monster ministries. But maybe we'll play with it a bit more. We might try and find a word that sounds like monstrance...or....something. I don't know.
Might take you up on that latin offer some time though. Latin rocks! Cheers Raphael.

Keep 'em coming.....
