Have you completed some of the Ruhi courses? Do you teach a children's class? animate a junior youth group? tutor a study circle? Are you part of a neighborhood team thinking about the growth of your community?

If you answered yes to one or more of the above questions, you came to the right place!

Strengthening Our Service

is a regional effort to ensure that youth (14.5-30 years old) who have already begun the Ruhi courses are working in teams to serve with others. Whether you are a youth that has a consistent team of collaborators to think about all aspects of community life, you have been serving on a smaller team sustaining one educational activity, or have yet to hold a weekly activity (devotional host, children's class teacher, junior youth group animator, or study circle tutor), this regional effort is for all - it is not an additional path of service to choose, but rather it strengthens the path that we are already on!

BASIC OUTLINE

STEP 1: Register by MARCH 1, 2019

Share some details about which courses you have completed, your goals in service, and how you are currently serving

STEP 2: Based on a consultation with you and others in your area, you will form a team of youth (if not already on a team) to think about meeting new youth over the spring semester and building friendships. Your team may decide study the "2013 Youth Conference" materials to shape your conversations with other youth about personal growth and improving the world around us (MARCH - MAY)

STEP 3: Your team and newly met friends in the Spring will team up to have conservations in a neighborhood and to invite children (5-10yrs.) or junior youth (11-14yrs) to a camp

STEP 4: Your team and newly met friends will attend an overnight camp to complete courses of the Ruhi sequence

STEP 5: You will return to the neighborhood and host the children's class or junior youth camp as a kick off for an ongoing class or group. Share your reflections at a regional space of AUG. 4

STEP 6: Repeat the same planning, action, and reflection in FALL and WINTER 2019...and so on!
