• A Look @ 2010, Part 5 Volunteers

    Posted on December 12th, 2009 Andy No comments

    The success of any ministry lies in the Men and Women who are allowing God to use them in the ministry.  In the church world these men and women are usually unpaid volunteers.  We have been blessed with some of the best volunteer youthworkers I have EVER SEEN.  They have a passion and love for Christ and to see HIM move in our students that is inspiring.  
    What can sometimes happen is volunteers get asked to do something else, then something else, then sit on a committee, etc.  Factor in family issues, hobby’s, etc and even though they have a passion for youth, their calendar gets full and they miss.  If you want youth to grow closer to Jesus , volunteer consistency must be a reality.
    In 2010 We are asking around 8 Men and Women to committ to being @ every Wednesday Night meeting for the entire year (obviously they will miss for vacation, etc- but you get the point.)  1 Year.  52 weeks. 365 days.   It is a huge committment, and I am confident that lives will be changed because of it.  It’s not supposed to be easy.  It takes sacrifice.

    The plan is to have a Saturday training in late December or early January (4 hours.)  Then we will have a monthly meeting (30 minutes.) These meetings will be full of training, devotions,  and most importantly prayer.
