10 Ways to Connect With the Girls In Your Church

Connecting with girls during COVID may not be easy, but it’s never mattered more! Pre-COVID, our girls knew the heartache of FOMO (Fear of Missing Out), loneliness, rejection, and girl drama. In COVID, 79% of girls report that they feel more lonely or isolated now than they did before.*

Whether your Sunday School, GEMS Club, or other small group is meeting shoulder to shoulder, through a screen, or small group has been canceled, connection has not been canceled. Your girls need you to connect so they feel seen, known, and loved. Here are 10 small ways to make a big difference in the life of a girl.

1. Mail her a postcard.
2. Pick up the phone.
3. Add a sticky-note of encouragement or an I Believe in You Card (free download here) to her take-home sheet.
4. Make a driveway visit.
5. Send her a playlist.
6. Write her name in an acrostic with all the good things you see in her.
7. Send her a Bible verse personalized with her name in it.
8. Order her a Sparkle (grades 1-3) or SHINE brightly (grades 4-6) magazine. Use the CODE: CRC20 by December 1 to receive 20% off each subscription.
9. Ask, “What is your 2nd favorite snack or school subject?” Need more engaging questions? Download free Convo Cards here.

Keep connecting. Our girls matter. So do YOU!
