WHAT YOUTH SAY ABOUT PML

* I am not there to solve it for them, but to merely help them through it. –Mallory

* It is extremely hard on a youth minister to deal with everyone’s problems all at once, but now Peer Ministers are equipped with the skills to help out. Many teenagers consult their friends first because it is more comfortable for them to do so opposed to talking to an adult. As Peer Ministers we are able to relate to other’s problems more than anyone else and be able to help them explore their alternatives. –Kari

* One of the most significant things from this training is the leadership ministry in my church and community that I am now involved in. After leading Bible studies, being a leader for youth group and other activities I seek new ways to go into the community to use my leadership skills. –Megan

* I use what I learned not only with my friends and peers, but also with my family and one day my career. –Nicole

* Before going through Peer Ministry training I did not handle conflict well. I had a hard time communication to other people how I was feeling and why I was upset, which usually resulted in an argument and frustration. The Peer Ministry training has taught me not to handle situations like this in a positive and constructive manner. How when I encounter conflict of any kind I am able to successfully use I-messages and other techniques. What I learned are successful and positive ways of mediating conflict and expre3ssing my opinions and ideas. –Jenny

* Before the session on Authority Figures I had trouble talking to my superiors and getting any results. I had always let my emotions get carried away leading straight down the path to getting nothing. After this session I leaned that one cannot talk to authority figures as if they are not in a place of authority because they are. I learned not to insult their judgments and to be courteous while still standing by my own values. –Andrew

* My family and I have started getting along better since I had Peer Ministry Training. Recently my mother and I had a disagreement. Usually that kind of thing turns into a really big fight but this time I put my Peer Ministry skills to use. I listened to what my mom was saying, and tried to understand it. Then I was able to tell her what I thought and why. We ended up compromising. It saved us some hurt feeling and we both got what we wanted. –Christa
