Simply Soul Care

Care and encouragement by youth workers, for youth workers

Psalm 61:4 - I long to dwell in your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of your wings.

Everyone experiences highs & lows in life & ministry, and sometimes it can feel like there is no “safe place” to turn when things get tough. But you’re not alone. Simply Soul Care is a new ministry outreach from Group & Simply Youth Ministry that offers youth workers free, confidential pastoral support when you need it. It’s like “urgent care” for a youth worker’s heart & soul! This ministry first began onsite as “the Shelter” at the Simply Youth Ministry Conference, and we’ve realized the need extends outside the conference walls all year long.

If you need to connect with someone, simply fill out the information below and a brief description of your situation. Our on-staff “Pastor to Youth Pastors” will get you connected with someone from our Soul Care Advocate Team within 24 hours. Our incredible Soul Care Advocate team is comprised of pastors and veteran youth workers who’ve volunteered their time to listen to your situation and offer advice and encouragement and prayer. If you need additional support they can also help connect you with professional counselors, mentors, or assist connecting you with the appropriate local support you need.
