Your role as a youth ministry leader is vitally important. Whether you’re a full-time youth pastor, bi-vocational youth pastor, or small group leader, YOU have the privilege of pointing students to Jesus. You get to join in on God’s activity in the lives of young people. That’s so cool.

Keep up the great work you’re doing!
