One advantage of a small youth group: Individuality

The youth are not just a part of a group but can be recognized and accepted as an individual. They can have a significant place in the life of the group and in the life of the congregation. Their particular skills can be generally known and their contributions generally recognized. It is most healthy for a youth to grow up with the ego-building knowledge of being a worthwhile individual rather than one member of a mob.Make sure the special skills are used somewhere somehow
  • Recruit them for specific jobs but also specifically recruit them to participate in congregational activities
  •  Contact them periodically just to chat
  • Highlight their accomplishments on a bulletin board at the church
  • Recognize them in worship for anything of consequence
