  • i suggest maybe you start a music type program. you know what i mean maybe at the beginning of each meeting you guys can sing a couple songs maybe if you know a musician somebody that can play the keyboard, guitar,clarinet,sax ect.... that would usually make it more interesting
    (i myself as a musician would be attracted hopefully it would attract a good amount of youth) it doesn't really have to be fancy all you genrally need is a group of youth and a couple good songs.

    hope it works out great ;D

    no, i dont think so
    becoz i remember a youth cruise, and we had to go through a few hymns to get the youth singing...
    also wen our choir performs at church or in a hall or something... its only the egyptians who REALLLLLY enjoy it, and all da youth walk out.
    and i, myself wouldent enjoy a youth meeting wid ppl waiting for the singing to finish so the talk or sermon to start.
    for best resuls, go out to bowling, ice skating, a cruise.. etc. and have the talks or lectures before u go out, or maybe at the place.
    sumfin like dat.. :-\
  • it doesn't neceasserly have to be hymns it can be a really nice christian song i know that some ppl don't like to participate but if the song is good and not boring i know the majority will and you know it doesn't have to be anything fancy like the choir for instance who do big performances. it can just be something to get more ppl to particpate in the meeting. i can't you why you wouldn't want to sing in the first, i mean we practically during most of the liturgy. besides it shows more unity and how proud we are to be christians.
    i just can't understandf why wouldn't anybody want that.

    hope i helped

  • okay personal advice...stay away from the clichés if ur trying to attact youth...they've heard it all..seriously. disscus more recent issues...i.e. the Life of a Christian in a non-christian society...or Christianity in the Media...they usually make good open disscussions.
  • thanx guys
    thats gr8
    keep postin, i luv hearin ur ideas
