VALENTINE’S DAY IDEAS

by Jonathan McKee
February 11, 2003

I’ve been getting a lot of e-mails asking for Valentine’s Day IDEAS. Here’s a few to keep you busy!

First, check out the VALENTINES DAY AGENDA on my TOPICAL CURRICULUM page: https://thesource4ym.com/outreach/valentine.asp

Second, if you’re doing a discussion on sex, check out this SEX discussion from our TOPICAL CURRICULUM page: https://thesource4ym.com/outreach/sex.asp a discussion that also appears in Jonathan’s book: https://thesource4ym.comhttp://www.jonathansresources.com/Books/default.aspx

If you are planning a large event on the subject of sex and relationships, check out this resource for speakers: www.recommendingsex.com

Next, check out a cool event idea on our EVENT IDEAS page: https://thesource4ym.com/events/ called the TEN DOLLAR PROM. A great CHEAP idea that students would enjoy.

Next- peek through my games pages. Tons of great games that could be adapted for Valentines day: https://thesource4ym.com/games/index.asp Like for example . . . on my ANYWHERE GAMES page: https://thesource4ym.com/games/anywhere.asp scroll down the list and look for these games- you could make any of these apply to Valentines day: BLIND SHOE GRAB (make it the Valentine’s Shoe Grab), ENCORE (make the words from "love songs") FOOT TO EAR, etc.

Enjoy!

And YOUTH SPECIALTIES once again donated some great prizes that you won’t want to miss! Here’s your chance to be rewarded for driving that nasty thing!

We will be giving away the following prizes:

2. Write a paragraph of 60 words or less informing us of the following: A. What you do in youth ministry (ie: I’m a volunteer Sunday School teacher) B. Where you do ministry (ie: at First Baptist Church in Collinsville, IL) C. A description of your vehicle, explaining why it is a heap.
3. E-mail us your name, phone number, your paragraph, and picture at heap@thesource4ym.com
