Community Youth Fellowship:
Working Together for Our Youth
OPEN to all Youth and churches in Rockingham County who desire a positive christian youth connection
·
What it will take for our community fellowship to operate:
· Willing congregations
· Willing leaders who work well together
· Willing and active youth
· Resources (examples: meeting space, willingness to share events, food, transportation)
Positives of being involved in community youth fellowship:
· Having a youth group, even when you have very few youth at your own church
· Sense of community is developed between the churches beyond just the youth
· Barriers, assumptions and stigmas about other churches and denominations may be broken down
· Adult leaders create lasting friendships with one another
· Youth create lasting friendships with other youth outside of their own churches
· Youth feel the love and support of coalition of churches
· Attending events of and with other churches outside of our own denominations
· Always having extra adult leaders to help out, especially in times of need
· Introducing youth to more adult role models and Christian mentors
· Youth see adult leadership and have become leaders themselves
