In my class this week at ATS, we covered innovation and change. Youth Ministry is full of changes as we try to meet the fast shifting cultures of our young people today. Reviewing how to manage change has renewed the challenge to keep up with the changes in the needs of our young people in the youth ministry. Sometimes, I wanted to surrender for new innovations are always around the corner these days. But I praise God, though there are many changes that happens in this world, I am reminded that my ministry with young people has not change, and the Word of God has not change either.
I remember our La Sallian prayer... seeking God for us to be continually a catalyst of change and make this world a better place to live in. This prayer has reminded me the importance of change and it starts from with me. All things are possible through Christ who strengthens me...
Let me be the change I want to see
to do with strength and wisdom all that needs to be done
and become the hope I can be
Set me free from my tears and hesitations
Grant me courage and humility
Fill me with Spirit to face the challenge
and start the change I long to see
Even if I am not the light
I can be the spark
In faith, service and communion
let us start the change we want to see
The change that begins in me
Live, Jesus, in our hearts FOREVER
