NGL: EQUIPPED

To serve our young people well, we need to be equipped! Come join us for theoretical and practical skills training helpful for youth ministry.

The Need

The landscape of youth ministry in the Chinese Church has undergone major shifts in recent years, and many youth leaders across the country are still adapting and learning.  Many are seeing a rise in kids ministry and foresee the need to start youth ministry. 

 

An Invitation

In light of the above, we invite you to attend the second of our two NGL events this year, ‘NGL: Equipped’. In the February event, we prioritised spending the day in prayer for our ministries and the young people we serve. In this event, we'll spend time in prayer, but also focus more time on training relevant and applicable to youth ministry.

 

Who is it for?

We invite all those who are currently involved in youth ministries in Chinese churches, or those who are looking to be involved in these ministries in future. We also invite church leaders and parents who have an interest in youth ministries and want to know more about it.

 

What does the day look like? 

The day event will include a blend of training, group discussions, prayers of intercession, and worship time; as well as opportunities to network and talk with fellow attendees. Please see the timetable for more detail.

​​

Please note that this event will be run in English.

WORKSHOPS

Vision of Youth Ministry that Lasts a Lifetime

Whatever context you find yourself in, youth ministry is just challenging in and of itself. Finding people to serve, crossing the generational divide to connect with youth, thinking about programme and teaching topics can all be overwhelming and an ongoing challenge. Is there an approach that is better? Why is the next generation worth investing in? These questions and more will be explored as we think about youth ministry that lasts a lifetime.

 

Let’s come and seek God together, make space to hear Him speak, and be reminded of our purpose and mission. May God empower us and give us vision for youth ministry that lasts a lifetime!

Youth Group Games With a Purpose

Contrary to what some may think, fun and games are not the enemy and they do have a place in youth ministry. But rather than using icebreakers and activities to fill time or entertain our youth, we want to use them purposefully. We should be considering how can we lead games in a way that unites young people in joy and break down the walls that separate them from genuine fellowship. In this workshop we'll talk about using games and activities as a tool for ministry and equip ourselves to lead them well.
