" GOOD FRUIT MINISTRIES" Consulting in Youth Ministries
"This is to my Father's glory that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples." (John 15:8) We are acknowledging more and more the need in our churches for excellence in youth ministry programs. We believe that Christ is calling our United Methodist Churches to bear good fruit by leading youth to a right relationship with God. Good Fruit Ministries responds to this call in four ways.
We encourage and equip those who work with youth to recognize their own need for personal growth and spiritual health. Secondly, we help to identify the gifts and talents that God has given each leader specifically for youth ministry. We help leaders find a vision of youth ministry that incorporates the involvement of the family in the implementation of youth programs. And finally, we provide tools for teaching youth how to lead and use their own spiritual gifts for ministry.
It is our desire at Good Fruit Ministries that our services are available to all churches. We do this by working with individual churches addressing their needs and creating a program that is affordable for them. If this is not a service you need in your church but would like to make available to other churches, you can make a tax deductible contribution to Good Fruit Ministries, 401 The Farm Road, McDonough, Georgia 30252. If you have questions, please call Gail Matthews at 770-312-3042 or email her at gail@goodfruitministries.org. Visit the Good Fruit Ministries website at www.goodfruitministries.org.
