what is YP's Connect?

YP’s Connect is a teaching program that aligns the YP’s daily devotions/work book with a weekly curriculum teaching session.

Imagine the11-15 year olds in your church digging into Gods Word EVERY DAY and then coming together once a week for a Teacher guided fun and engaging session on what they have learnt. THIS IS YP’s Connect.

Your Youth will read from their own copy of YP’s each day throughout the week. Then, once a week, connect together as a group and using the FREE Lesson Builder, engage in an interactive and fun session to explore what they have learnt.

How Does it Work?

Your church places a standing order for YP’s Daily Devotionals (Workbooks) – one for each young person in your group. These Workbooks are supplied to your church at the special price of $4.76 each (Australia) or $4.79 each (New Zealand)

The Workbooks are then sent automatically to your church every 2 months, a minimum of 2 weeks prior to the start of the relevant month.

Lesson Builders are completely FREE and will be sent with your standing order of workbooks and additional Lesson Builders copies are available for participating churches to download on the CRS web site.

Your group of Young people read the notes in the workbook each day and on Sundays or once a week the group meet together. A leader then uses the supplied Lesson Builder notes to engage these young people in what they have learnt through their daily reading.

FOR ONLY 60c PER WEEK YOU CAN PROVIDE AN EASY TO USE, INTERACTIVE AND VERY COOL PROGRAM FOR YOUR YOUNG PEOPLE.

January and February are different to other months

January/February will differ from all other months.

As many people have not returned from summer holidays and church programs are generally not fully operational in January each year, the first month session will be a little different to others.

The Workbooks will be sent mid December a normal and your Young people would receive the workbooks and commence reading in January. However, the group program will actually commence the first Sunday in February with an overview of the first four weeks in the workbook.

Each week after that, the Lesson Builder notes will correspond with the daily notes the young people have read in the past week.
