Dear Student Leader
In 10 years of Student Ministry, I can count on one hand, the number of times that another student ministry leader reached out to me for the purpose of building a relationship, encouragement or collaboration. I can also count on one hand the number of times that I reached out to another youth leader for that purpose as well. In the past year, however, I’ve made connecting with others who serve in student ministry a priority, and here’s the difference that it’s made.
…that’s what United Night is about. We want to invite you and your student ministry to a night focused on our joint mission – to inspire students to love God and serve their peers this school year.
During this night, we’ll also host a short meet and greet FOR YOU where we will give you a no-pressure opportunity to connect with the community of local student leaders in ministry that we are building.
- I’ve been able to SHARE the challenges of ministry life with those working in the same arena as I am.
- I’ve both GLEANED and OFFERED up IDEAS to other leaders about how to serve students and the families that they are a part of more effectively.
- I’ve MADE FRIENDS with other leaders who share my passion for God and ministry – people who I can be open and honest with.
- By connecting with other student leaders in ministry, I have begun, by example, introducing the students who I serve to the idea that we, God’s people, ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER.
