NEW CHRISTIANS
This is a vital time in a young person’s faith journey and you want to do whatever you can to support them. The best way to disciple and mentor them is to get alongside them so that they can talk about their relationship with Jesus and the leader can listen, encourage and model how they keep growing in their faith. A young person should not do this alone but get together very regularly as they learn to walk with Jesus, read the bible, pray, listen to God and begin to live differently.

New Christian booklet - “I’ve decided to follow Jesus but what now?” How do I begin my journey with Him? How do I talk to God? Why should I read the bible? How does God want me to life”

This booklet is best done once a week with a leader straight after a young person says “Yes” to Jesus and as the leader talks about how they live with God.
Walk alongside your young person
New babies need love and support, so do new Christians. It's the most important time to walk alongside a new believer. During this time you have the opportunity to model Christian life, disciplines and introduce them to the faith community.
