Word of Life Local Church Ministries would love to partner with your local church to equip you with the resources, curriculum, and training you need to help your young people grow in their faith and maximize the impact of your ministries.

They’ll come and help you run Fascar, provide equipment and supplies, help you with promotion strategies and present the gospel message.

Think a race sounds fun? What if we throw in mud pits, obstacle courses, top it off with a color run and finish with the gospel? Races are fun, yeah – but this one’s the wildest. Your area Ministry Coaches are there just to help you out! They’ll come and help you run Slopstacle, provide equipment and supplies, help you with promotion strategies and present the gospel message.

For Students 6 TH - 12 TH GRADE

It’s an event you can host in your local church to reach unsaved students with the Gospel of Jesus. You’ll start the night with your youth group students, sending them out in vehicles to pick up their friends and bringing them back to the church for a gospel event. The night can include all kinds of programming fun, but it always ends with a gospel message and some kind of over-the-top food – like a 100-foot long banana split. Every year, hundreds of youth groups use the STORM event to partner with a local Ministry Coach to grow their youth group through reaching new students in the area and bringing them to a saving faith in Jesus.

Every believer, including students, has God-given talents and spiritual gifts that the local church needs. Engage is a fresh way to get youth involved in ministry, to enable students to discover their gifts, to develop them through coaching and competition and to deploy both inside and outside the church. The event is focused around getting students involved in two types of ministry: ministry teams, through a ministry scenario that changes each year, and church ministry, through presentations that can be used within the local church itself.
