Youth Meetings

Hi All!

I am trying to bring new and exciting topics to our youth meeting and I need your help! Our attendance has been, well, lacking, and so I am trying to get our group to be stronger than what it currently is. If any of you have attended youth meetings at your church or other churches where there were topics of particular interest that have stood out in your mind, please respond back and let me know. I would love to hear from you!

    Hi,
    Ideas that might help:
    1. try bringing food before the meeting, have a social half hour to create intrest between the members
    2. have a suggestion box
    3. Try a series like "encountering God" or disscuss a book over few weeks
    4. have different speakers
    5. Always hold the meeting at the same time and place, that way people who don't often come will know that on any week, the meeting will be held so they will come
    6. Get the perist to annouce the meeting time and place every sunday among the church anouncement
    7. have a weekend activity, going somewhere as a group. Have that also announced
    8. Always mention the meeting in your prayers and God will give you guidance.
    Hope this helped.

    Thank you both for responding. I like the food idea. Right now we are doing it after the meetings, God willing. The problem I feel like is that we don't have input from the youth and therefore don't really know what to talk about. Last week, our meeting was on St. Augustine which was good but because I teach Sunday School, I already knew about it. I was hoping we could, as a group, come up with some type of interesting topics...to be used in my church and in other churches--hopefully something possibly debateable and definitely of interest.

    What we do at our church is every Friday, we have hymn class from 6-7 (not part of the meeting) and from 7-7:30 we have "heavenly chips". After that we say a couple songs and then have the meeting till like 8:30 or 9:00, then we pray the 12th hour of the agpeya. And one topic tat we had recently that i really liked was about death, it was really good.
