God has blessed you
with special gifts, talents, strengths, and abilities with the
specific purpose of telling others about Him.
Jesus commands us to
“Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation.”
(Mark 16:15)
“Each one should use
whatever gift he has received to serve others.” (1 Peter 4:10)
Every person has
unique, God-given gifts, passions, and abilities.
At QUAKE it is our
goal for every teen to be involved in a ministry that they are
passionate about in order to share the LOVE of Christ and LEAD
others to Him.
Here are just a few of
the ministries that you can get involved in at QUAKE.
Audio Visual
Team:
This AV team makes Sunday night Quake happen.
This team includes sound, video, Powerpoint or Media Shout, etc. If
you are a technically minded person that loves working behind the
scenes to make things look and sound great, then this is for you!
Birthday Card Team:
Who doesn’t like to get cards on their birthday? This team keeps
track of the birthdays of our teens from month to month and sends
cards. If you love birthdays, then this ministry is for you.
Dare2Care Team:
This ministry seeks to make every visitor feel welcome, loved, and
cared for. The first few minutes are critical to a person deciding
if they are going to come back or never return. This ministry will
teach and train you to identify, befriend, and follow-up on new
teens at Quake to help them get connected.
Drama Team:
The
drama team works with the lesson schedule for Sunday night youth-led
worship experiences to provide quality, relevant dramas that fit the
topic for the evening. If you are good at acting or just like to do
it, this is for you.
Enner Team:
Our
youth group has adopted a child from Compassion International ~
Enner Alexis Chilel Lopez from Guatemala. This ministry is
responsible for collecting funds ($32 a month) for Enner as well as
making sure we communicate regularly with him.
Facility
Team:
Every time we have an event at the church we need a team
to come a little early and stay a little late to help set-up and
clean-up. This is not a glorious ministry but it is one of the most
important ministries of this youth ministry!
Greeters:
Our
greeters are a teen’s first impression of Quake. We need people who
can smile, shake hands, and go out of their way to make people feel
welcome! If that’s you, then this is for you!
Music Library Team:
We have our own music CD library where youth can check out
Christian CDs for a week at a time. If you love music and are
organized, this ministry is for you. This team is responsible for
the check out, return, and care of all our CDs as well as suggesting
additions to the library.
Photography Team:
If you own a camera you’re eligible! Actually, even if you don’t
own a camera, you’re still eligible. We need students to be
responsible and creative with a camera to take pictures at all our
events for the web page, newsletters, and promotion.
The
Breakfast Club Team:
On the second & fourth Mondays of each
month during school, Quake meets at the McDonald’s on Route 31 at 6:30 am for
breakfast, a devotion, and prayer. If you like to eat, then this is
for you. This team organizes devotions and posts reminders for these
Monday morning meetings.
Prayer
Partners:
This ministry allows you to support the youth ministry
by praying specifically for the leadership, students, events, and
regular programming of the youth ministry. Each prayer partner will
receive a monthly prayer update giving specific direction for
prayer. This ministry is incredibly important!
Student
Leadership Team:
Student Leadership is broken up into two
groups: Senior Leadership (10th-12th grades) and Junior Leadership
(7th-9th grades). Each individual interested in participating must
fill out an application and interview with the youth pastor. All
youth involved in student leadership must: 1) sign a contract and
commit to a no-doubt lifestyle, 2) be in a discipleship group, 3)
consistently attend Sunday night youth, 4) be actively involved in
or leading a ministry (senior leadership).
Web Team:
Our
website is an important tool to promote our youth ministry. This
team is responsible for maintaining and creatively updating our
website.
Youth Praise
Band ~ REACH:

gifted then we need you. The goal of this team is to assist other
students enter into the presence of God through worship. If this
