​​Youth Group Resource Packets

Designed for Theme-Based & Non Theme-Based Churches Alike!
Filled with creative, faith-based worship, games, mindfulness moments and discussion starters, our monthly youth packets lessen youth advisors' planning time so they can focus on the work of relationship. 
  • Each packet contains 4 weeks of session material. 
  • While the packets are structured around our Soul Matters themes, these themes are general ones that speak to the universal journey of youth. So even if you are not a theme-based congregation, the packets will work for your program.

Our Approach
We call this series "On the Road Together" to honor how youth groups offer young adults partners on their journey.  Our “on the road” frame also highlights the ways in which each monthly theme is a path all youth need to learn to navigate. 

This is not a curriculum. We design packets as a chest of building blocks. Our goal isn't to create your youth group experience for you step-by-step, but instead give you the tools and resources you need to build your own experience. Like a box of Legos! We do this because we know that every youth group has its own unique culture. 

Each packet's components support "whole person" learning, with each section focusing on a different way through which we engage the world: head, heart, hands, body, spirit/soul and community. Here's an overview of these holistic packet sections:

I. Getting Started   (engaging the theme through community)
II. Spiritual Practice   (engaging the theme soulfully)
III. Discussion Starters   (engaging the theme with your head)
IV. Express Yourself   (engaging the theme with your hands and creativity)
V. Fun & Games   (engaging the theme body and experiential learning)
​
Additional Support
We strive to support your entire Youth Ministry, not just provide monthly packets. So every subscription also comes with a monthly letter for parents connecting that month’s theme to issues impacting youth, monthly online youth leader gatherings to offer support, and supplemental materials for specific days and events important to today’s youth.

Questions
If you need help figuring out whether or not a subscription is right for you, please email our Youth Ministry Coordinators, Rev. Sara Lewis ([email protected]) and Rev. Kimi Floyd ([email protected]).
