Six excellent ready to use sessions and four cool powerpoint quizzes here. Registration is free and allows access to a load more freebies! Some of these resources may need editing as it appears they were originally produced for American user groups.

The source4ym is packed full of excellent resources for youth work & ministry. The ´slang dictionary´ which you will find on the left hand side under ´articles´ makes for an interesting read!

I love this site...so much good stuff here. Check out the poetry section down the bottom of the home page. ´Thankyou God for Christmas´ and ´Lord help me not to miss Christmas´ are great poems to help remind our young people about the ´real´ reason for Christmas.

Want crosswords/wordsearches etc.

I´d vouch for http://puzzlemaker.school.discovery.com/ too. You can make a wordsearch using words from a Bible passage in 5 minutes! Tell whoever in your church does the children´s sheet on a Sunday morning...
