I am frustrated! My husband was asked to take over the youth group at our church months ago. Because of this I have become involved with planning events for this group. We are fortunate to have wonderful friends to help us with planning and chaperoning, without Lara, Ben, Marty & Melissa I don't know what we would have done! I am excited that we are going to have a youth intern this summer...I am hoping this is such a wonderful experience that it is decided we need at least a part-time youth minister!
My frustration is coming from complaints of parents & kids who do not plan anything nor help in any fashion. It seems that we have a few people who do all the work while others are pew sitters wanting to be entertained and hash out complaints about everything! I realize that this is not an isolated problem just at our church but at many if not all churches. My question is how do you get these people involved and to stop complaining? We have tried everything we can think of, but it seems that we are met with challenge after challenge from simple things to major things.
I love God and am struggling to be a good christian, maybe that is why the devil is working so hard on me. Ok...so I am putting on my big girl panties...I am going to praise God and be thankful for all things!
