Leading Small Groups
If you are leading a small group for the first time, here are a few tips to help!
- Remember to keep your questions open ended (avoid yes or no questions).
- Silence is okay in a small group. Sometimes youth need time to think and process before answering.
- As the leader of the small group, avoid talking too much. This is a time for the youth to process their thoughts. If they have questions or need mentoring, give a shorter answer and let them know you can talk more together after the small group.
- The Small Group Questions are meant to be a springboard for you to ask further questions and facilitate conversation among your group. Feel free to ask follow-up questions as they process. You can ask even more specific questions from the keynote content.
For the Small Group Questions click the “Small Group Questions” icon on the main menu.

Prayer Ministry
First Line of Defense
Thank you for your yes to care for and minister to the youth at the Steubenville Youth Conference!
The group leader and adult chaperones are the primary ministers to the youth on the weekend. Please be sure to share all of this information with all adult chaperones and religious in your group.
The Team of Prayer Ministers
Prayer ministers will be wearing red shirts and will be available at all sessions. They may approach you to ask if you need assistance. Feel free to approach a prayer minister for help.
You are invited to stop by the Prayer Ministry Room, lower level, 7A, anytime during the weekend to pray with a team or to leave an intention.
Role of Prayer Ministry
The role of prayer ministry is to serve and support you and your chaperones by offering spiritual assistance to the youth in your group. Prayer ministry is an extension of the ministry done by the ministry team from the stage and by you as the group leader and chaperones. They can assist you if there are several youth that need attention or if there is a particular situation that you and your chaperones are unsure how to handle.
Remaining Present
If a prayer minister does assist your youth, it is ideal to have an adult chaperone from your group present to watch over and pray with them also. It is good for the youth to have a familiar person present. In addition, it is the adult chaperone who will be going home with the youth. Therefore, he or she can continue to pray for and with the youth at home if needed. If this is not possible, know that the prayer minister will encourage the youth and let them know that group leaders and chaperones are there for them, if need be.
