Youth with Courtney

Courtney a gradate from VFCC in 2006 seems like a fun loving girl that you can see right when you first meet her. She is from Gladetitings church was she works now as one of the youth pastor of the Youth Leadership team, but she didn’t start off as a youth pastor. Going into her internship in 2005 even though she work at GT for the three summer before that she wanted to work Glade tites as a youth pastor because well she was a youth major. But at the start of her internship she becomes the church administrant assistant mean sectary. She went from being a part time person to a full time person but she still want to be a youth pastor then. After many months as the assistant she could not take working in that position anymore, she said to her self do the Best and God will Take Care of the rest. Share the Dream with God but let it go… and he will take it from there. Got creditable with the AG and after talking to the pastor one more time he got the position as one of the youth pastors. As a youth pastor she is putting in a lot of hours a week but it is all worth it in the end because the youth group is amazing, and it is growing in so many was that it seems to be almost impossible to keep up with all the changes that are happening. They are a small group base groups that will have about 10-15 kids in each group and if the group grows which is great, but they would have to split it down to make more small group. The church feels that it can ministry to so many people through the small group that they are willing to try about anything to make this small groups work. Each group have the shy ones and loud ones but they will mix and match these kids up that will help them get to know each other on a small group level but each person is encouraged to talk during the small group. They go on a lot of mission trips because they believe that it brings the groups of small groups together to make a lifetime of memories. It was interesting listen to her and her passions for youth. It was great ideas and great knowledge that I would need to know soon.
