Salt & Light Youth Group
Rules

1. SHOW LOVE FOR OTHERS AT ALL TIMES. This means: Put the rights and needs of others ahead of your own. We don’t put others down, make fun of people, hurt, or pick on others. “Love your neighbor as yourself.” (Matthew 22:39)

2. LET OTHERS SEE JESUS THROUGH YOU. Be a reflection of Jesus, do things that will point to God. In other words, KEEP IT CLEAN! “Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect." (Romans 12:2)

3. RESPECT OUR CHURCH & THE PROPERTY OF OTHERS. We need to take care of our church, youth room and each other. Be respectful of where you are and of other’s belongings. “We are each responsible for our own conduct.” (Galatians 6:5)

4. KNOW WHEN TO BE GOOFY & WHEN TO BE SERIOUS.  We are here to have FUN! But it’s important that we all listen and participate during Bible studies, discussions, or other “serious” times.“The Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in us: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.” (Galatians 5:22-23)


5. PLAY SAFELY. You are very important to God, our church, youth group, and to your family. We don’t want anything bad to happen to you or to others, so please follow any safety rules and use common sense.“Follow the Lord’s rules for doing his work, just as an athlete either follows the rules or is disqualified and wins no prize.” (2 Timothy 2:5)

6. LOVE ONE ANOTHER! BUT BE CAREFUL HOW YOU SHOW IT. As fellow members of God’s family, there will be times when you will want to share hugs with your fellow youth members. Please, keep things appropriate at all times. “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: ...a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing." (Ecclesiastes 3:1, 5b)

7. KEEP A POSITIVE ATTITUDE. Smile and be glad! We have so much to be thankful for each and every day. “A cheerful heart does good like medicine, but a broken spirit makes one sick.” (Proverbs 17:22)
