As we navigate ministry in this new season and in a new normal, we need to be having honest conversations about not only the overall ministry in the local area but also about the health and growth of the Committee/mission community.
As a Committee Chair I needed a tool that would help guide my conversation with my Area Director that looked at an area Committee/Mission Community in a holistic and comprehensive approach through the lens of the five core functions of ministry: Spiritual Development, Leadership Development, Resource Development, Direct ministry, and Ministry support.
The mid-year/end-of-year report card gives Committee Chairs and Area Directors an opportunity to give valuable and specific feedback on their Committee/Mission Community.
Wondering how to use it? IT’S SO SIMPLE.

The Committee Chair and Area Director partnership is vitally important in the midst of this unique ministry season. As I sat down with my area director, this evaluation tool allowed us to celebrate, dream, and plan as we look ahead to the future impact of Young Life in our local area. It has also allowed us to shift our focus to areas of greater need and invite people into conversation aligning the needs of our area with the gift set of our Committee/Mission Community. As a Committee, we are committed to a rhythm of celebration, planning, and evaluation. We are excited to utilize this tool to identify areas of great traction and significant need in our local area and live up to YoungLife’s rhetoric of reaching every kid.
