Spring Cleaning Toolbox - Evaluation Time

via GIPHY

Continuing from our conversation last time, there is more Spring Cleaning we can do...but this is a little harder. Its really important to evaluate everything we do in Youth and Young Adult Ministry. If we don't evaluate, its very easy for our ministry to become stale and lifeless. We'll start with some resources on evaluating programs, then the harder one of evaluating staff/volunteers.

Divine Mercy

Picture
The Lord's Mercy has always been present to us- but how does a Polish's nun's devotion change that for us?
