Greetings!

As adults, no matter if we are the teacher, the parent, the neighbor, the friend, the relative... When we are face to face with a child, God has instructed and expects us to lift the child up to see His grace and mercy.  Here are a few tips to get the affirmation ball rolling when you have the blessing of time with a child.

Ten Quick but Powerful Affirmations

Posted By: Youth Specialties on September 20 2011

 

Here are 10 quick affirmations that can make a students day:

 

1. Send an electronic greeting card. 

2. Leave a message on her voice mail (intentionally call when you know she's in school).

3. Drop off a note where he works part-time. If you're at the fast food place or in the mall, jot a quick note on a placemat, napkin or scrap of paper that says you thought of him.

4. E-mail a picture you took at an event and add a fun caption.

5. Send a text message saying, "You're awesome!"

 

What ones would you add?

TEEN BANNER 

From the Executive Director...
 

Let me be one of the first to wish you "Happy Thanksgiving!"  We are thankful for the support of many on our behalf.  Building relationships with young people who need to hear the Good News of Jesus Christ can be challenging work.  Sometimes there is not much they can be thankful for in their lives... that is, until they meet Jesus.  This holy holiday season, please remember YFC in your prayer and giving.  Help us give young people something to be thankful about!
