IssuesJesus, light of the world
As we have explored lots of different kinds of schools’ work on page 26, we decided to go back to basics with this page and provide an assembly outline. This assembly is to be used around Halloween. Christians often struggle with Halloween, feeling unsure about how to approach such a commercialised event, which is tinged with darkness.

I’ve come to a realisation, and it’s taken me nearly ten years to get there. Confession time: I have always assumed that youth ministry was something that I’d give myself to with abundant passion and commitment… for a time.
