Last Saturday we planned out our Fall 2011 clubs. I’ve mentioned it before but here is how we do it: I ask each leader to come with three new fully planned themed clubs (mixer, game, skit, additional fun things to spice it up) I write all of their ideas on […]
Here is another great post from my wife! I love getting to host club in our home! It’s my way of getting to be involved even though I’m not currently leading Young Life. We’ve had club here for 2 years now and I’ve learned a few practical lessons along the […]
