Part 1: Let's All Go to GA!

Video recording, 14 minutes, 36 seconds

What is GA like for youth? Why should youth from your congregation go? Are there leadership roles for youth at GA? How can I get the congregation (let alone the parents, the board, the youth themselves!) motivated and eager to support us? And what kind of strategic pre-planning should I be doing now? We answer these and other vital questions in our first installment.

This video series is hosted by: Deborah Neisel-Sanders, Jessica Laikeman, Mary Carter-Vail, and Scott Stewart.
