For a long time, the church of F. has regularly held interesting meetings for the family members of the youth and teenagers. Everyone is invited - "family" is not seen so much genetically as "spiritually". Everyone is invited to be part of the "family of God". Here even singles, grandmas, neighbor kids, single mothers .... feel comfortable. The meetings are organized by families or small teams from the community. The focus is not on perfect organisation, not on a stylish programme, but on fellowship, games, fun, conversations, spontaneity, mutual service, encouragement and sharing.

This is a summary of the book:

"Youth Ministry with Vision"

by Doug Fields from Projection J Publishing.

ISBN: 3-89490-318-X

How do we deal with change in our lives?

Life is in constant flux, we cannot change. Since the fall of man, we have been subject to transience. The name Abel (Genesis 4:2) means "transience"; the name of his brother Cain (Genesis 4:12-16) means "chased, hurried"; the land of Nod in verse 16 means "land of restless living".

Invitations contain the necessary information about your events, such as meeting place and time. They serve on the one hand to inform your youth about upcoming events and on the other hand as a simple means to invite outsiders.
