Introducing Kevin Johnson, Our New Board Member
Posted by Tracey Daniels at
It is our honor to share that Rev. Dr. Kevin Johnson has accepted a call to serve on the GenOn Ministries Board of Directors. Kevin serves as Director, Children’s Ministries for Congregational Vitality and Intentional Discipleship and Discipleship Ministries for the United Methodist Church. Kevin’s hero Fred Rogers suggests that we, “listen to the children, learn about them, learn from them. Think of the children first.” This quote defines Rev. Kev’s approach to ministry, as well as his passion for intergenerational worship and communication. Kevin, an ordained elder of the Kentucky Annual Conference, has more than 20 years of ministry...
Two Questions: Brittany Sky
Posted by Tracey Daniels at
Brittany SkyProject DirectorChristian Parenting Project In each edition of IG Mix, we ask someone the same two questions about intergenerational ministry: “What keeps you up at night?” and “What gets you up in the morning?” What keeps you up at night?As a mom with a young child, I often spiral at night about the ways I want to support Rowan as he grows. Last night I was kept awake thinking through his overnight sleep troubles and how I can support his transition into a big kid bed.

Step 1 - Discover - Six-Step Path for Becoming Intentionally Intergenerational
Posted by Liz Perraud at
Liz PerraudExecutive DirectorGenOn Ministries I love the idea of Discover. Maybe it goes back to my days of reading Nancy Drew or Encyclopedia Brown detective stories. Discover invokes feelings of excitement and newness; the experience of surprise or “aha” moments in the midst of an intentional quest. When our two-year-old granddaughter rounds the corner of the paved path, glimpsing the swings and slide (that she didn’t remember were going to be on our walk), her whole body erupts with her discovery of “the pway-ground!!” Wouldn’t it be fun and energizing for your church to experience the same...

$27,000 End-of-Year Giving Match!
Posted by Liz Perraud at
A congregation in Hedgesville, West Virginia launched Youth Club (what we now call LOGOS) in the mid-80s. It thrived for 20 years. Now, about 15 years later, those young people who grew up attending the ministry wanted to revive it for their own children and for the new neighborhoods around the church. They called GenOn to help them restart. And we gladly did with training, resources, and encouragement. Nikki, one of the co-directors, shared recently, “Youth Club is going so well! We have so much support and help from the church and the parents. I always ask if anyone wants...
