2024 Family Ministry Weekly Planner

In ministry, it’s easy to let the urgent keep you from the important. How many times have you started a week with intentionality, only to reach the week feeling unaccomplished and still unprepared for your week of ministry? That’s why we partner with Church Fuel to bring you this planner every year! There’s one page for each week, with plenty of space to help you to focus on what matters and give you insights about what’s coming up in your church. Here’s a quick rundown of each section and how to use each one: KEY TAKEAWAY: Simply reflect on the previous week and capture a lesson you learned. THREE OUTCOMES: When you get to the end of the week, what results do you want to celebrate? Remember, these outcomes aren’t tasks — they're achievements! ACTION ITEMS: Jot down a few key tasks for the week, making sure they're clearly connected to your desired outcomes for the week. PEOPLE: Remember, ministry is about people, so ask God to bring three people to mind you want to connect with — maybe a kid, family, volunteer, or coworker. THINK ABOUT THIS: This short challenge is time-sensitive. It’s meant to let you know what’s coming up and give you something important to work on each week. Each page of this planner is similar, but in this section, you'll notice timely advice matched to the season of ministry. If other staff members at your church are using the Grow Weekly Planners in their various areas of ministry, these challenges will align across ministries so you'll all be learning (and growing) in the same ways. VERSE OF THE WEEK: Think and meditate on this verse as you move throughout your week. And if you're following the scope and sequence from Grow Kids Curriculum, these verses will align with what you're teaching each week! What you do matters so much — so we hope this planner helps you make the most of your time. We can't wait to see what you do to make this year of ministry really matter. P.S. In case you haven't heard, Grow Curriculum is now available for kids and students! Plus, we've got handy tools to make ministry easier, like Grow Hubs, Grow Slides, and Grow Numbers.
