Rooted Ministry In case you missed it, we wanted to share a replay of our recent webinar: Preparing for Summer Camp and Youth Service Trips. One of the hallmarks of summer youth ministry in many churches is getting away with students. Whether you’re accompanying teenagers to camp for fun and spiritual growth or taking them to serve and learn from the local church in another part of the world, these weeks away can be equally fruitful and exhausting.
For this webinar, members of the Rooted team offered practical tips about safety and boundaries, best practices for preserving your energy, and encouragement for you as a spiritual leader. We pray these resources bless you and your summer events!
Following, we provide some Rooted resources that align with our panelists’ conversation. We hope you’ll find them helpful as you serve teenagers in your context.
