Global Youth & Family Ministry

This past Saturday, Steven and I had the opportunity to participate in a weekend mini - retreat to think through ways to work alongside the Global Youth and Family Ministry that is headed by Eric and Rebecca Larsen and Mission to the World. This ministry works with American youth who are growing up in another country becuase their parents serve on the mission field. It also seeks to implement youth ministry programs abroad and equip and train national leaders and churches. Steven and I not only have a heart for Youth Ministry, but a desire to reach the nations for Christ. This is why we find this ministry to be extremely valuable. So, we met with other Youth Ministry minded folk and discussed ways to come alongside these students around the world and how to best meet their needs. Steven and I hope to discern in the next few years how the Lord may desire for us to serve with this ministry. Here is a picture from the retreat!
