I come from a very large family, and most churches around here have asked us not to come back to their church because of different reasons ( some of my sibs are adopted, it's "unGodly" to have this many kids, we raise our hands and dance when we worship), so lately we've just had church with our family. My dad shares a devotional and we all pray and my brother and i lead worship. we have a large basement and there are 6 teenagers and 3 preteens in my family and we gather downstairs with our friends sometimes and have prayer services and praise and worship. we asked our parents if we could start a youth group in our basement and invite kids from our neighborhood and school to come. they are OK with the idea. we'd prolly just pray, have praise and worship, and then take turns sharing devotionals. we're not going to have any youth pastors (that's ok, right?). do you have any advice on how to actually get started and how to run the services (how long it should be, etc.)?
