Back to Bloggin

My job has been overwhelming lately. Fun, but overwhelming.
Not only are we in the midst of summer activites and gearing up for small groups, but my head is about to explode with major decisions that have to be made in the near future.
Im really wanting to give the jr. high ministry an identity but I didnt realize how much would go into it.
First and foremost, a name for the ministry. You might think it would be easy to just pick one and go with it. Not so much. Im hoping that this name is something that that students will love and will stick around for years to come.
Second, we are wanting to give the student center an extreme makeover. We have a great room that has much potential, but it is really bland right now. Any ideas on what to put in a youth room, let me know.
Third, we are wanting to make the nights more of an outreach (bring a friend)atmosphere. I want the worship to be a more energetic, concert type feel where students would want to bring their friends.

It is a blessing and a lot of fun to have so much freedom to make these changes, but it is quite scary as well. You dont know what will or will not work. I guess you sometimes have to just take a risk and pray that you are making the right decisions.
