Often times this can be the youth pastor’s wife (if he is married). But, it could also be the girl’s own parent, another parent, or another woman or women in the church who step up to work with the girls in the ministry. 🙂
My wife is one of the women, along with others in my ministry, that helps fill this role.
But, I can understand that many women may have callings to serve in other areas of ministry as well or instead.

That’s why having a team is so important. After 2 years we finally learned that we couldn’t do it all ourselves and recruited a team – both men and women who have a passion for students and a love for Jesus. My wife was then able to step back. She still volunteers (but doesn’t teach any longer) , but if she decided not to, I wouldn’t make her. The awesome thing is since we let go of the reigns a little, we have seen our ministry double in size. Hope this helps!
