Save the Date
Last week you should have received a NextGen Ministries Postcard from us listing all our Summer Ministry Opportunities for 2010. A “Save the Date” postcard, to help you as you’re planning for summer. If you didn’t receive this post card please contact our office so we can resend one right away.
I always feel like summer is the best time to minister to kids and youth. It is not a time to slow down or shut ministry down, but to ramp ministry up. Students are out of school; there is no more homework. Summer is the ideal time to do some special and creative ministries. Like putting on a Vacation Bible School, start up a summer discipleship ministry, kids sports camps, or taking youth & kids to camp.
Summer is also a great time to get them involved in hands on ministry, perhaps through a ministry trip. Here are a few ministry trip opportunities you might want to take advantage of this summer.
Our Western Kids Camp is August 16-20, at Kellogg Spring Camp outside of Sutherland. We are looking to host a Youth Ministry Team “SMT - Student Ministry Team” at the camp. This team would help with activities, games, drama, sports and work directly with the campers during the week. This could be an amazing opportunity for your group. If you are interested please contact my office.
NextGen/Bridgetown Outreach Trip will happen in downtown Portland, August 3-7. This will be hands on inter-city ministry. You will be working with kids, youth and the homeless community of Portland.
Let’s not slow down or shut down this summer, but seize the opportunities God brings our way.
