Summer's winding down, which means it's time for the question every youth leader dreads: "So... what are we actually doing this year?"

This week's free drop is built to answer that before the first day of school hits.

You're getting two things:

The Year-at-a-Glance Google Sheet — a fill-in-the-blank calendar for mapping every month, series, and event from August through May, so you can see the whole year in one view instead of planning month to month. View the google sheet here and just make a copy to edit it.

The 6-Page Planning Guide — a walkthrough for actually filling out that sheet: how to pick your fall/winter/spring series, where to slot big events (kickoff, fall retreat, Christmas, spring trip), and a few prompts to nail down your theme for the year before you lock anything in.

Use them together — read the guide first, then open the sheet and build your year while it's fresh.

See you next Monday,
Youth Ministry Drop
