YouthServe
Arkansas is a program that enables Ouachita students to travel to
the churches of Arkansas and train youth groups to serve their
communities through serve days. A team of four Ouachita
students helps junior high and high school students to put their
faith into action.
After
arriving on a Wednesday, the Ouachita YouthServe team works with
church leaders to set up a serve day for the following Saturday. The
youth group and Ouachita student leaders then report back to the
church congregation on the experience. The Ouachita team leaves the
church youth group with the challenge of hosting a special serve
day on the dates that Ouachita hosts its own serve day in the
fall and spring of each year.
This is a ministry to get youth to stop watching ministry, and
instead, get them out in the community doing ministry.
