NEW RESOURCES
WEBSITE: We just launched our new ENGAGE website a few weeks ago, check it out if you haven’t already! yfcengage.org
TRAINING MATERIALS: When I started as the ENGAGE Program Coordinator, one of the first things I did was update and reassemble the training manual that we use with our volunteers. Now, after it has been tested “in the field”, there are some tweaks and additions to be made. One of the biggest additions is more intentionally including discussions with our volunteers around how to do ministry that is culturally sensitive and locally empowering. (Want to learn more about these topics yourself? I recommend the books “Toxic Charity” and “When Helping Hurts”.
NEW PARTNERS
There are so many exciting things happening right now with the ministry of ENGAGE. It has been my goal for a while to start working full-time in this position, and to make that happen I am looking for some new partners.
Are you excited about what God is doing in this ministry? Do you want to make an investment in the lives of young people around the world?
I would love to talk with you about what that could look like.
I am currently looking for 10 additional partners:
2 at $100/month, 2 at $75/month, 2 at $50/month, 2 at $25/month, and 2 at $10/month. Is one of those you?
