Mental and Emotional Health of a Youth Leader

It was April 10, 2020. The date is important because there were a few things going on in our family during that time: my dad, brother, and sister-in-law had Covid, our kids had been home from school and doing “distance learning” for four weeks, my husband had transitioned to being a high school Zoom teacher and I was a virtual youth minister. We were preparing as a church for our first “virtual Easter” and it all felt so, so sad.
