I just got done redoing mine this week. I’m handing them out/going over them on Sunday at our youth coach meeting. I’ll have to look over yours and see if there is anything I might still be missing – but not until next year or the next youth coach :)

I am a newer youth pastor and am in the process of putting together my volunteer packet. Are you allowing people to use and tweak yours?

Yup, feel free to tweak it and use it!

I was flipping through your packet and would like you to explain your YG “led by students” under vision for students section a little more please. Thank you for taking the time to converse.
