30 Ways to Impact Schools as Youth Leaders

I liked this post I read over at Travis Deans’ blog. These are some great ideas on how to connect parents and adults in the community to the schools. Here’s an excerpt for how youth pastors can serve the schools:

25. Make an appointment to meet with principals, guidance counselors. Ask them what help they need.
26. Work with other youth pastors to bring school assembly programs to schools.
27. Become an assistant coach for a sports team.
28. Do the Campus Checkup your students and other youth groups.

29. Sponsor an evangelism and/or campus ministry training event with other youth pastors in your community.
30. Connect with other youth pastors in your community to share ideas, create a common strategy, etc.

There are 24 other ideas as well, centering around prayer, outreach, and service. Check it out.
