Natalie and Jazzy are two ordinary people with an extraordinary story of empathy and connection. The Fuller Youth Institute team met them through our multi-year Growing Young project, during which we studied hundreds of churches that were thriving with young people.
We believe Natalie and Jazzy’s friendship demonstrates what’s possible in churches like yours. What’s more, it also reveals what you don’t need in order to involve and engage young people in Spirit-led ways.
We hope their story encourages you as your community seeks to grow young.
Share this story with current or future volunteers or youth leaders as a reminder that our young people don’t need us to be perfect, they just need us to be present, to have real conversations and treat them like real people.
