Youth Ministry is a challenging call placed on a certain few to interact and shepherd young people in their relationship with Jesus Christ. The way that those called to youth ministry serve is varied. In the Tennessee Conference, many of our youth ministers are unpaid, several others are paid part-time by their church, and even fewer are full-time staff. Regardless of pay scale, the challenges of ministry are very similar.
The New Youth Ministry Institute takes all of this into account. Click the Youth Ministry Institute tab at the top of this page to find out more about this exciting training opportunity.
We will start the new YMI Cohort Group in February 2012. This cohort is designed for veteran youth workers who desire a deeper understanding of some of the core issues of youth ministry.
YMI Cohort is a 2 year commitment that will include 6 retreats. Each year will offer 3 retreats on a Thursday noon to Friday noon schedule. Between each retreat, the cohort group will meet at least 2 times a month to discuss life, ministry, and the previous and upcoming retreat. The cohort is designed to build a support community where those participating can feel safe and uplifted while gaining new knowledge.
Dr. Jack Radcliffe, Adjunct Professor of Christian Education at Martin Methodist College, will serves as the Dean of YMI. Jack is completing his coaching certification and will offer his coaching services to those in the cohort who request this component.
If you are a veteran youth worker, we hope you will consider this exciting opportunity to grow, learn, and refuel alongside other youth workers as we build a community of support.
