Praying for Courage and Clarity to Tell Our Ministry Stories
Prayer helps young people deepen their connection with God and can help them identify God at work after a transformative mission or ministry experience. Through this prayer activity, you’ll lead your group to reflect on a recent experience ministering to and serving others and consider how those learnings impact their day-to-day lives. Then, you’ll guide them to prayerfully write a testimony and identify how they might share their stories with others. Your teens can try this prayer journaling exercise any time they want to formulate their experiences into stories and share testimonies of God at work.
