About this resource

Pizzapalooza: a Just-For-Fun Event Guide for Youth Ministry EVENT CATEGORY: Just-For-Fun SPIRITUAL HABIT: Spend Time with Others AGE GROUP: Students For a well-rounded and holistic approach to your ministry events, there are 10 different kinds of events we recommend including in your annual event strategy. The category for this event is a JUST-FOR-FUN EVENT. This type of event is focused on relationship-building! Through fun, games, laughter, and teamwork, kids and teenagers get to practice the spiritual habit of spending time with others. By the time winter rolls around, the teenagers in your ministry are starting to settle into their routines. Take advantage of this brief lull before the holidays to plan an event that is both fun and free - with pizza! Pizzapalooza is the ultimate youth ministry event! You can't go wrong with pizza. It's personal. It's communal. It's basically the whole food pyramid in a bite. That's why an event celebrating all things pizza will bring your group together whole pie style. The perfect event to go from deep dish to deep relationships. What happens at Pizzapalooza? Well, pizza parties (that's what we call your teams) will compete for pizza prizes to create pizzas, talk about pizzas, and play games related to pizza all in order to be deemed the World Pizza Champion! The point? Pizza. We may not be able to do all the event-planning for you, but this resource is designed to give you just about everything you need to pull it off on your own. All our events are built to be flexible! You can customize this event to your ministry's needs, but here's how we recommend using this one: Use this event one night at your church, or in host-homes to create a safe first step for new friends to visit your ministry, build community (between teenagers, small groups, or leaders, and kids), and simply enjoy God's good gift of pizza!.
