Commitment
*
We want to be as up front with you as we can about the time requirements of youth ministry. We want our leaders to be present through the entire year to build and establish a great relationship with students, which involves a great deal of consistent time spent at youth and events. Life is rough, things change, we are flexible, but we want committed godly leaders pouring themselves into our students. So think through these questions and click the ones you can agree with:
This ministry requires approximately 4 hours every Wednesday from September to the end of May. Are you able to be at youth each week?
There will also be 2 camps and potentially 5-6 events through the year, as well as personal time spent with students. Are you able to meet this requirement?
Given the public nature of this ministry, and that you will be an example to younger believers, it will require abstinence from the public use of alcohol or tobacco, and no pictures of such activities can be visible on Facebook or Twitter or other social media (we aren’t legalists, but we are an example to youth, and we will explain more in our training time together, but we want to be up front). Are you able to meet this requirement?
Motivation
How has God led you to serve in this area of church?
*
If you were to serve in our ministry, what would you expect to get out of it? What would you expect from the leaders of the student ministry?
*
What makes you think that you are well suited to serve in youth ministry?
*
At your current stage of life, do you have the time to balance the demands that are sure to come as a result of serving in a ministry? Explain your answer.
