Lebanese Church youth leaders receive creative training

Tuesday, June 6, 2006
Sessions were designed to provide capacity building to Church Youth Leaders through new and practical tools and creative ways of serving children at churches. Dynamic discussions for teenagers kids games and sports in Ministry, using creative ways in story telling, the art of Public Speaking and many more were included in the training. These subjects are essential in building effective leaders, self esteem and responsibility.

Dynamic discussions for teenagers kids games and sports in Ministry, using creative ways in story telling, the art of Public Speaking and many more were included in the training “We have selected a wide range of topics for this training and each participant could choose 6 topics to attend, based on what they feel they need capacity building in” said Jean Saliby, World Vision Lebanon’s Christian Commitments coordinator.

“I attended 6 sessions out of the 12 offered. I wish I could attend all of the sessions offered.
They are all interesting and very important for us. We are learning interesting methods in dealing with children at our churches” said Mona Chabai from the Itihad Church in Mastita.

Each participant, which included volunteers, some from World Vision Lebanon’s children camp contributed a fee of US$10 to the workshop which will go towards supporting this years children’s summer camp.

I wish I could attend all of the sessions offered. They are all interesting and very important for us Due to its success last year, World Vision Lebanon in coordination with three other organizations: Youth for Christ, Grain de Ble, and St. Paul movement organized this second workshop.
