Helping Youth and Children Navigate Anxiety

Through its mission and spiritual growth studies, United Methodist Women has helped children and youth understand the world around them and the work of the church in many regions. Through geographical, spiritual growth and social-issue studies, children have had a chance to expand their worldview and their understanding of God. This year’s spiritual growth studies help children and youth explore and manage their emotions and anxiety. These two studies, Managing Our Emotions and Managing Our Anxiety, help them identify and understand their responses and reactions to what is happening in their lives and to those around them. response asked the writers of the children and youth studies, Trudy Rankin and Faye Wilson, to share their experiences of making understanding and managing emotions and anxieties into two engaging mission studies.- - -This episode originally appeared in the July/August 2020 issue of response, the award winning magazine from United Methodist Women.Visit www.UnitedMethodistWomen.org to find out more.
