Needing Bibles and Bible covers for our kids and youth in a rural part of Colorado at a very small church. If you have any you are willing to let go of, please contact me. We need them as soon as possible. Thanks!

Discipleship in our church has been lacking across the board. We have a new youth pastor who is big on discipleship and I have wanted to start my kids on some sort of discipleship program, but didn't really know how to get started. I am very excited about this group!!

Yes, it's a fantastic program, I can speak from personal experience. Both of our boys have been involved in the program and are now actively serving in leadership roles during the weekend services.

My oldest son, age 12, has been involved in the program for 3 years and is now leading a team, as well as being in training for leading worship. The program has given him great confidence and desire to follow after God and live a life of worship.

The program begins with a 10-week discipleship training course, ending with a "commissioning" before the congregation with graduation certificates handed out. Then the new grads begin serving in various positions ready for them to begin serving in. Regular followup up training sessions called "Tune-Ups" keep things fresh and also provide opportunities for fun and relationship building. The program has graduated... I believe over 100 kids now in two churches... is that right Vic? Correct me if I'm wrong on that.

In any case, the buy in from parents has been tremendous. They see the value when they see their kids actually growing in their faith and maturing in how they live out their lives, at church and at home.
