Senior High Ministry

I know I just wrote about my time in junior high ministry last month but I am so excited to move on with many of the same kids and be there for them as high schoolers…at least for a little while. What’s unique about my situation is that I’ll be the only leader who hung out with all these graduating classes of kids that are current high schoolers, in middle school.

From the moment I was done in senior high youth group I missed it, and then I loved junior high ministry, but coming back to senior high as a leader will be a new experience. I’ll be working with a different pastor but he’s the same one I had in senior high.

High school youth group is a place where different cliques come together, and often, become friends, its where a group of teens can feel comfortable talking to adult leaders as if they too are adults. It’s also where a bunch of kids can make a fall football team for a retreat even if one is 4’11” and the other is 6’2″.

So here’s to late night youth group, youth retreats with high schoolers, and more in-depth Bible study, and a great year of ministry and growth.
