The Youth Ministry Collective exists to encourage, equip, and resource leaders who are discipling middle and high school students across the Global Methodist Church of South Carolina. Through statewide retreats, trainings, and resource-sharing, we help leaders grow in their ability to plan, teach, disciple, and shepherd students with Gospel clarity and Wesleyan conviction. Our collective provides a network for collaboration, encouragement, and spiritual renewal, ensuring no leader walks this journey alone. Whether you’re new to youth ministry or a seasoned leader, this community is here to strengthen and support your calling as we work together to help students encounter Christ, grow in faith, and live as His disciples.
