Recharge/Team Notes
Devos for Meetings
Keep it short!
60 secs is all that is needed – one key point/takeaway
Keep it real!
Bring something from your personal devotional time – we’re all leaders who are
engaging with personal devotions right?
Keep it encouraging!
How are your words encouraging the team and setting up the night?
Suggested outline:
1 – Read the verse/quote and mention where you found it
2 – What was God saying to you through this? (1 point only)
3 – How can we apply this to our ministry?
Team Notes
Youth Team WINS!
Faith Convos – Not every conversation needs to be about faith, but we are missing the point if none of our conversations are.
Follow Up – Follow up shows that we care about each and every person
Family – Meet/talk to parents – they entrust their youth to us, so connecting them to us and to the church is a major win!
Friday + – Whether we use any of ‘The other 166 hours of the week’ to connect with our youth shows them we actually care.

We are Team Gateway – are you on the team?

We value people – did you value that person?
