When coming up with girls ministry ideas it is important that you know the culture of your group and your community. This does not just mean ethnicity although that is a part of it. I am talking about the needs, interests, and norms of your community. This is unique in each town and each church. Then within each group of people this can become even more unique or diverse. You need to know what these needs, interests, and norms are so that you can plan ministry and events accordingly. You need to know what will work well. You need to know what you might need to change about the culture or what barriers you might need to overcome. This process is not difficult, it just takes some observation, conversations, and maybe a little research. But this step in the process is vital when it comes to how successful you will be.
