AYCF Online Community for People Engaged in Ministry to Youth and Children

Pass It On recognises the importance of children’s and youth ministry in shaping faith for the next generation. This community exists to support and encourage those who serve in this space, helping them feel resourced, connected, and sustained in their calling. There is no pressure to be an expert or to have the right words, simply an invitation to journey together, be supported, and pass on the Gospel of Jesus!

This group exists to offer:

  • Connection — a place to connect with others involved in children’s and youth ministry

  • Prayer and spiritual support — a space to pray for one another and remain grounded in God’s presence

  • Encouragement — opportunities to both give and receive encouragement, especially during busy or challenging seasons

  • Shared wisdom and stories — a place to share experiences, questions, and insights, and to learn from one another

  • Resourcing and formation — access to experienced children’s and youth ministry practitioners who support the community through shared reflections, resources, and occasional workshops that strengthen ministry practice

  • A safe and respectful environment - where people can speak honestly, listen deeply, and support one another with care and sensitivity. This is a space that honours the diversity of ministry contexts, recognising that each setting is unique. Participants are encouraged to share from their own experience with humility, offering insights as a gift to others, and receiving what is shared with openness and grace.
