Youth Ministry - "Don't Forget" - Part 1

Here are 10 youth ministry Ten Youth Ministry “Don’t Forgets”...

1. Don’t forget, you are not a teen, you are their leader. Oh, yeah, it’s cool to go out and play ball with the zoo crew and even check out the latest flick. But when it gets down to crunch time you are their leader, not their peer.

2. Don’t forget, always keep your church leaders informed of what’s going on in your ministry. They need to know what you are doing and how well your group is growing spiritually. It’s not bragging or “blowing your own horn,” but they usually will not know unless you tell them.

3. Don’t forget, video all special events and show them at the end-of-the-year party. Your teens will love it and so will the parents. You might make copies and give to your seniors as a graduation gift.
