Youngstars ministry is based on seven core values: Christ-centered, relational, needs-based, holistic experiential, multiplication, community-relevant, society-relevant.
The Youngstars ministry supports young people in their maturation process by living a threefold relationship: with God, with fellow human beings and with creation.
This happens because of the following seven core values:
Christ-centered
The salvation through Jesus Christ alone and the new life He gives us through it is placed at the center. Through the Youngstars ministry, young people are encouraged to live with Jesus
Relationship-oriented
The Youngstars work thrives on relationships that are shaped positively. Children and teens should feel accepted and valued.
The leaders work together as a team, they complement and support each other
Needs-oriented
The offers are designed age-appropriate, experience-oriented, versatile and creative. Children and teens are taken seriously in their development, their needs and questions, and are supported and accompanied.
Whole experience-oriented
The Youngstars ministry is geared towards children and teenagers not only being taught (biblical) knowledge in a scholastic way, but also being able to experience the individual themes and stories of the Bible for themselves. Thereby head, heart and hand should be addressed.
Multiplication
In the Youngstars ministry, children and teenagers are encouraged in their personal development so that they learn to take responsibility. This is done through good role models, devotions, living together and connecting with a national or free church. Leaders are trained and supported in their teams and in trainings so that they can carry out their leadership activities in a motivated and competent way
Community relevant
Every Youngstars ministry belongs to a church community. It is a part of the worldwide church of Jesus Christ and does not only have its own needs in mind. Youngstars ministry is active church building
Socially relevant
The Youngstars work is a work that brings a benefit to the population. These benefits consist of, among other things, meaningful recreational opportunities, integration, and addiction and violence prevention. Children and teenagers are supported in their development and have the opportunity to acquire social and everyday skills
