Covenant of a Household Leader

1. I will care for my household members by communicating with my household
members regularly, informing then of all YFC activities and making their
concerns my own.
2. I will bring my household members to the Lord by teaching them to apply Christ’s
words in their personal lives – their families, friends, school, love lie, and prating
for them always.
3. I will teach my household members to love – their fellow household members,
their brothers and sisters in YFC, their families and friends and all those around
them
4. I will attend all activities of YFC that are applicable to me especially the regular
household leader’s training.
5. I will be a witness for the Lord Jesus by being pure and righteous, faithful to my
studies, loyal to my brothers and sisters in YFC, my family and especially my
parents.
Household Leader’s Prayer

“Lord you have searched me and you know me. You know every thing I do…
Find out if there is any unrighteousness in me and guide me in the everlasting
way. ”
(Psalm 139: 1-2, 24)
Lord Jesus,
I thank you for choosing me to serve you
By caring for your people
You know me,
My guilt, my sin and my pain.
I realize that I am most unworthy yet you fall me,
And so I ask for you grace.
Forgive my sinfulness and my stubbornness.
Take my heart of stone and turn it into flesh.
Teach me to love.
When I lack patients, genuine concern and courage,
Let your love and strength bridge the gap.
Help me love with your love and wisdom,
And bless those I will care for that they too may love.
Fill me, teach me, guide me and give me strength.
Amen
What is a Household?
Definition
 The household is the most basic, concrete tangible expression of God’s love in
Youth for Christ.
 It is a support group by nature and its main purpose is to foster a venue for growth
in Christian maturity.
 It is where YFC members experience being cared for and learn to care and give
love.
 It is a Christian group where YFC members can have a sense of belonging, be
themselves, simply because they are accepted for who they are – sons and
daughters of God.
Mechanics
1. A household is composed of:
 5-7 brothers and 5-7 sisters
 Two household leaders, a brother and a sister lead them. The brother’s
main responsibility is to care for the men of the group. Aside from this he
takes on the role as father or “older brother” of the whole group. Only he
is referred to as the “Household Head.” The sister will act as the partner of
the Household Head and her main responsibility is to care for the women
of the group.
 Aside for the two household leaders, another male – female pair will be
added to the group to act as assistant household leaders.
Note: Having a team of leaders makes it easier to pass on Christian culture to members
of the household. (e.g. worship, positive speech, honor and respect etc…)
2. Forming a Household
 Before members are grouped (e.g. during camps) the service team in
charge of grouping participants should take note of common
characteristics of different people. (e.g. where they’re from, interests, age,
etc…)
 It is important to take not of those who naturally bond.
Note: Discussion groupings during Youth Camps should eventually end up as

Households. It will be easier to establish commitment among the members, if they
enjoy the company of their fellow household members because of their natural
bond. The spiritual bond they will have in Christ after the camp will further
cement their relationships and their commitment.
 Households (right at the start of their being YFC members – that is during
the camp) will have to be grouped according to the factors listed earlier.
 Leaders and their assistants assign household leaders and their assistants
from among the active members of the group.
 Potential household heads should undergo YFC’s Household Heads
Training program before the camp. This will also serve as their facilitators
training for the camp.
 Those who will facilitate and care for the members at the camp (which
will be the entry point into YFC) will automatically become the household
leaders of the group.
 Finding leaders who fit the general character of the members is highly
encouraged. This will make it easier for the household head to relate to his
members.
The Household Leader
Attitudes of Household Leaders

1. Humility – willing to learn
2. Has genuine interest and concern for their members
3. Good example in their personal life (practice what they preach)
4. Lead their members as opposed to simply doing what they demand
5. They are not performers.
Roles and Responsibilities of a Household Head

1. Inform members of all activities
2. Plan activities
3. Cares and pastors his/her members
 Regular calls and visits
 Is available for counseling at all times
 Finds opportunities for his/her members to serve.
4. Attends all Household Head activities and training
One-Year Track
What Now?
This one year household activities track is meant to help you facilitate a deliberate
follow-up program for your new Youth for Christ. It is supposed to help you and your
group get used to the rhythm and environment of the support group system we have in the
YFC household. A year of exposure in the ministry of caring for people will teach you to
come up with your own household activities for the second year. By then many of your
members will be tapped as household leaders themselves.
Aside for the suggested activities listed below, you are encouraged to bring your
members to camps, Praisefests, Club Praise parties and other YFC activities in order to
expose then to service and immerse them in the life and mission of YFC.
Note: The Household Head may substitute other activities that are more relevant to the
group, especially if special concerns arise. Consult with your unit head for such
changes. It is important to note however that the topics listed in this handbook are
the basic programs every YFC member should go through in his/her first year of
membership. If you so choose to substitute these activities with other more
relevant ones, you should make sure to re-schedule the meeting topics.
