Idea's Co-Op

Here is a few idea's from Matt from the Boone EFC church:

Some Rosebud Thoughts:

1. We’ve done a kid’s      club for 2 hours each night and then a shorter youth group for a little      over an hour after kid’s club has finished.  This has      accomplished some cool purposes:
   1. Less older kids around to       distract during kid’s club
   2. Something more age appropriate       for the older kids
   3. A place where our kids can be       peers during the week

2. We always have our congregation      pick individual kids to pray for and make care packages.  Usually we      have one adult prayer partner and a different person be the care package      provider.  Our congregation loves being a part of the trip.  We      also put a prayer card in the bulletin one week before we leave and ask      our congregation to prayer daily for our trip.

3. We also leave one day early and      travel to Sioux Falls to do a      thorough day of preparation and prayer.  It is a great experience for      our kids even before they jump onto the Rez.

     4. Here is a fact sheet we talk      about and pray over at our first meeting:
