#303. Young Lutheran Ladies: Leadership, Jesus, and YouthLead

Inspired by the LCMS Youth Gathering, the Ladies embark on part two of a three-part summer series celebrating young Lutheran ladies.   In this inspiring conversation, the Leading Ladies series gets aged way down, as Sarah, Erin, and Rachel welcome LCMS YouthLead executive team and participants Reagan, Ava, and Lucy to the Lounge to share their stories and perspectives on leadership.   How did these audacious young women first step into leadership roles in their churches?  What is YouthLead, and how did they get involved? How have they grown through leadership opportunities, including YouthLead? What do they think is important for other young Lutheran Ladies to know about leading in their own communities and congregations?  About YouthLead (from LCMS.org):  For 40 years, YouthLead (formerly Lutheran Youth Fellowship) has equipped teens to develop and use their leadership skills as they serve Christ within their congregations and communities. We offer resources and training to equip teens to lead and mentor each other.  Our annual leadership training event is facilitated by the teen YL Leadership Team. The event makes use of leadership resources developed to give teens the tools they need to mature in their faith, become leaders in their congregations, and reach out to their peers with the love of Christ.  Click to learn more about YouthLead, LCMS Youth Ministry, and the LCMS Youth Gathering.
