Date Night...

The Simply Youth Ministry Conference is coming soon, we're under two weeks away!
I've dedicated my last few weeks of posts to some do's and don'ts for the conference. And today I'll continue the trend!

Do: Bring your spouse! Seriously to some this may seem like a no brainer, because some of us have spouses who are deeply involved and passionate about students and youth ministry. However to others they may be wondering why they would do such a thing, because they're spouses are not as involved in their ministry, or, let's just admit it can't stand teenagers! Whatever your situation is, there is something for your spouse, there are connect groups for those who are married to youth workers (Connect groups are awesome "small group" types of gatherings that connect on a more personal level!) There are many workshops and classes also geared for your spouse as well, whatever their level of commitment to ministry is.

But don't take my word for it, my wife has written her top 10 reasons to come to SYMC! Check it out over at www.MarriedinYouthMinistry.com

Don't: Go the whole weekend without getting away, just the two of you! If you've done last week's DO, you've brought a few volunteers with you. Make sure you take some time to get away for a little while just the two of you. Skip a class and snuggle up on a sack chair for an afternoon nap (Just be ready for someone to shout "Hand Check!", it's kind of a reflex with youth workers!), jump on the trolley and grab an early dinner in downtown Louisville, Simply Youth has actually put together a list of date night ideas for couples! Take advantage of them!!

Want to join in the fun! There's still time to register! Click here!

Blessings,

Jeremiah
