Ministry Project Ideas

One of the goals that we seek for our youth in the church is to prepare them to be the next generation of adults in the church to carry on the work that God has given to us. Ministry projects are a great way to not only train the youth but to get them involved in the work of the church! This needs to be something that is constantly before them. We need to raise a generation that thinks it is normal to be constantly about the work of the Lord. Why??????  Because that is the way the way God ordained it to be! Read the book of Acts. You will never find anyone who thought ministry was a once a year or every now and then event. Here are a few ideas for you to plug your Sunday School class into:

Homeless Ministry - Collect toiletry items like tooth paste, tooth brushes, after shave, razors, kleenex, and other items and take them to a homeless shelter. Depending on the local needs and location, assisting in providing meals, encouragement, a Bible and other opportunities may be open to you and your youth.

Toys Ministry - Guide your class to consider some less fortunate family or families during Christmas time. This is the easiest one to get a class involved in. This can be done incase of a house fire, a birthday, or any occasion where a toy to a child would brighten a day and would give an opportunity for witness.

Food for the Hungry Ministry - Collecting food for the needy is easy to do. A box in the classroom is all it takes to get this started. This is one to get going now and keep going. This can serve as an open door for evangelism.

Senior Citizen Ministry - There are some great opportunities in getting the youth of the church to get to help some of the senior members of the congregation. Mowing a lawn, raking some leaves, cleaning out  a garage are just a few things you may consider offering. This is a way for the youth to get to know some of the Senior's of the church. I have seen this produce some great friendships between some youth and seniors. This will do more to validate your youth as "real ministering members" than nearly anything else.
