YOUTH MINISTRIES
WORLD RELIGIONS RETREAT
January 24-26, 2020
Youth Ministries provides the Christian Education of our youth from 7th through 12th grade. We are comprised of two youth groups that meet Sunday mornings (September through May) at 11 a.m. Groups are distinguished by grade levels and are led by a team of Adult Lay Advisors and Youth Staffers (11th & 12th graders), which is called our Leadership Team. Lay Advisors & Staffers are vital to the success of our ministry and meet each Wednesday night at 7:30 p.m. for planning and study. Youth also occasionally meet together on Sunday mornings for All-Youth Gatherings called “Big Room”, and once a month on Sunday evenings. We have several outreach projects and retreats throughout the year. All are welcome!
Our Mission: There is much that we want to do, teach and experience, but in a nutshell our mission is to create a safe, inviting place for youth to explore and grow in the Christian faith. Youth groups are open to all teens, regardless of their church (or non-church) affiliation and our confirmation program is held every other year. Basically we are trying to grow some passionate, energetic and awesome Christians here!
Sunday Morning Youth Groups are at 11 a.m. from mid-September through mid-May
