SEMINARS:
Saturday 8:30 AM:
DISCIPLING YOUTH TO DISCIPLE YOUTH
Raising up indigenous
leaders is an important part of any missions strategy. The same is true
of student ministry. The teenagers in your church live and breathe teen
culture 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Discipling youth to know how to
think and act Christianly is a critical component of a solid youth
ministry as is helping those teenage “indigenous” missionaries know how
to disciple their peers.
This
seminar will help you develop strategies to effectively disciple
teenagers while at the same time teaching youth how to disciple other
students.
Saturday 10:15 AM WITH SUE
JAKES:

time, money and volunteer commitment. We will look at a philosophy of
ministry that brings the two together and produces young people who will
have a vital serving ministry in your church.
