Youth Ministry Architects
We value the youth of our church and are committed to building a sustainable youth ministry that is going to have a deep impact. To ensure we have the leadership, ministry and philosophy of youth ministry to grow our youth, we invited Youth Ministry Architects (YMA) to visit SPC in the fall of 2009. YMA listened to a variety of groups within the church through focused listening groups and have written a report on the youth programs, including assets, challenges, how we compare to youth ministries around the country, and where it seems that God might be taking us next.
