Hey Youthworker!
Whether you are a full-time, part-time or volunteer youth pastor, youth director, intern or parent called to work with teens (did I cover everyone?), we salute you and think you are awesome! God has burdened your heart with a desire to reach teenagers, His kids, for Christ and we want to come alongside you and help you do just that.
One of our passions, along with engaging teens in campus ministry, is connecting with youth workers and networking them together. In fact, our desire is not only to see youthworkers from our city networked, but youthworkers from our entire region and nation breaking down denominational walls and working together. When today's teenagers see youth pastors and local churches who no longer compete with one another but instead root for and love on each other, that is when we will see our churches make a greater impact for the Kingdom.
We encourage you to be a part of a local network of Youth workers – where relationships can be built, ideas can be shared and where prayer and discussion can result in greater longevity in youth ministry and more community impact towards reaching teens for Jesus.
If you are interested in us sending your youth worker network our training resources, discussion starters and ministry encouragements for you to use for your network meetings, we would be happy to email them to you each month. We have several cities that use them and say that they are a real blessing to them. Of course, you are always welcome to join us at our meetings if you happen to be in the area.
