  22. Having a teen ministry team will CONNECT our teens with the entire congregation. Our teens need to see the church as a family. Our teens need to see a body of believers unified working together. Less discipline problems @ YM events. Extra Christian role models for the teens. Together Everybody Achieves More WHY SHOULD CHURCHES HAVE TEEN MINISTRY TEAMS?

  23. FUTURE ELDERS FUTURE DEACONS FUTURE PREACHERS FUTURE TEACHERS FUTURE MOTHERS FUTURE FATHERS WE NEED TO LOVE AND TRAIN THEM. TEENS NEED TO BE SAVED TOO!!! INVESTING QUALITY TIME WITH OUR TEENS WILL INCREASE CHANCES FOR A NEW TESTEMENT CHURCH TO EXIST FOR THE NEXT GENERATION. WHY ARE OUR TEENS SO IMPORTANT TO THE CHURCH

  24. I BELIEVE… • A YOUTH MINISTRY WITH BALANCE WILL ENCOURAGE OUR FAMILIES TO LIVE A BALANCED LIFE…JUST LIKE JESUS!! • Luke 2:52 – And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men. (NIV)
