More Counselors Are Needed

Who? Mature Christians (college to Adults) who love to share the "Gospel", have a heart for the youth, or even love to listen and talk (e.g. share testimony.
What? Talk about "cool stuff" to get to youth's level. Be ready to hare their heart with "lost" youth or sheeps that been astray
1:1 Outreach Ideas During SYATP: Look for youth by themselves or even a group. Ask God for a "open" door to share with them after getting to know them through playing a board game, chatting about how SYATP has been, carry a notebook asking for suggestions or feedback on this event so far, but be ready to share your testimony and Scriptures. Suggestive Equipment: Notebook, pen/pencil, board games (something to catch youth's eye and interest-joke book, CD's, personal hobby/interest, etc..) and possibly a Bible on-hand.

1. Have counselors strategically place (at least 2by2) at the R.F.C., P.E.C., and L.C.C.
