Prayer jars will be set out and as the attendees wind down, small sheets of paper will be passed out. I will ask each person to write down one thing or one person that they feel called to pray for. Once their prayers have been written out, they place the sheet of paper into one of the two jars. At the end of the night, each person will reach their hand into one of the jars and choose a random slip with a prayer written on it. That person will then go through their week praying for whatever intention that person wrote down. 2. A meditation will be read out loud and there's a song connected with it to reflect upon. While listening to the song in reflection, allow the teens to have the option of writing down their prayers and thoughts. 3. Bible Jeopardy 4. worship songs Introduction Good evening and happy Wednesday everyone! Thank you guys so much for coming and helping me make my senior project a reality! The youth program here at Transfig is super important to me and I wanted to give back to the program while learning what it takes to be successful in a career I hope to one day pursue. A special thanks to Melisa Gonzalez and Karen Paonessa, who have helped me exponentially in this process and taught me so much throughout my senior project. Opening Prayer Hey God, Thank you so much for bringing all of us here safely and giving me the opportunity to host this event. Allow us to open our hearts and minds to see you in a new light. Throughout this week, show us your light and guide us towards your glory. In your name we pray, Amen Closing Prayer Dear God, We really felt your presence tonight through the songs and through the community. Allow us to keep your light in us for the rest of the week and to spread it to our peers. Thank you for bringing these wonderful people in my life and blessing me with the chance to host this praise and worship night. In your name we pray, Amen

The portfolio will showcase all the materials used towards/towards planning the praise and worship night. I made two portfolios, one accessed online and the other a physical. Both portfolios exemplified the same information and were formatted by as follows.

Divided into Five Sections:
1.Planning
-schedule
-decor
2.Activities
-prayer jars
-guided meditation
3. Food
-recipes
-decor
4.Music
-Playlist
-Song Book

The Online Portfolio also Includes:
1. Links directly to the recipes used
2. A link to the video compilation of the night
3. Direct links to the bible jeopardy and the meditation

Planning my product led to the construction of a portfolio highlighting the plans and process of what a youth minister puts into making an event and working that job in general.

How I Chose My Product: My facilitator and I sat down and came up with a list of events I could potentially organize (acting as a youth minister) such as:
1. Feed The Homeless Event
2. Praise and Worship Night
3.  In-community Mission Trip
4. Planning a Retreat
Along with planning an event, an online portfolio and physical portfolio will be made to show all the work that was put into the planning as a youth minister rather than an event planner.

My facilitator, Mrs. Karen, and I met every Wednesday night from September - February. Throughout those meetings we originally (in october) had decided on a feed the homeless service project. I formatted an entire plan of how I would complete this task but ran into a few complications that caused my project to fall apart. To fix this bump in the road, Karen suggested changing my event or product to a praise and worship night.

Continuing to meet with my facilitator (along with my youth minister), each Wednesday we would meet for about an hour and had a roadmap of my project. The date decided best for the event was February 21st as that was the Wednesday during a school break. My church offered me the youth room for this night, so this is where the night was planned to be held.
The Planning Consisted of:
1. Snacks
-Jello Cup
- Goldfish
-  Chocolate Dipped Pretzels
- Brownies
- Popcorn
I selected these snacks because they all had easy prep, as I was the one who would be preparing and providing them, and weren’t an extreme mess.
2. Music
- A playlist of 16 songs related to the theme
- Song Books with lyrics to each song was provided to each guest
-Song Suggestion Box
3. Decor
- String Lights hung up on the perimeter of the room
- Light up signs

- Pastel and bright colors to give off an enjoyable vibe along with a repeated floral theme
- Comfy chairs and blankets to maximize comfort of the guests
4. Activities
-bible jeopardy
- prayer jars
- guided meditation readings
5. Promotions for the event
-Flyers posted around the church and school
- an online flyer sent out in a mass text
- instagram and twitter posts
- Speaking to youth groups at the church and inviting them to the event
