Youth
Ministry Mission
We welcome all students, grades 7-12, into a
passionate relationship with Christ! Drawing on Biblical truth and trusted
Youth Ministry resources, we embrace and seek to implement the following
five core components of Youth Ministry: Evangelism, Fellowship,
Discipleship, Worship, and Service. Through all weekly meetings and monthly
scheduled outings/activities, we strive to implement one or more of the
above mentioned core components. In doing so, we hope to see students
mature in their personal faith. As they do so, students are then challenged
to branch out, intentionally impacting their peers for Christ.
Knowing that the core message of the
gospel is un-changing, we strive to utilize activities and interests
relevant to this generation to enhance spiritual growth. These activities
include, but are not limited to: games, music, art, drama, videos, dance,
and more! If you are excited to grow in your faith and want to see your
generation impacted for Christ, come check us out!

Relating to Teens
Today
In today’s technologically based world, face to face relationships have
suffered. More time is spent on websites than in devotion books, and today’s
teenagers are more familiar with iTunes & Facebook
than Christian standards and God’s Word.
The Bible does tell us to be “in the world…” We are not called to live
in self-contained bubbles or “no sin safety-zones”. However, we are called to
be “in the world, but not of the world.” We are called to mentor young people
from darkness to light, helping them learn the differences between the wide
roads of this world and the narrow paths of Christ.
We strive to utilize the most current and culturally relevant tools to
reach this generation for Christ. By utilizing art, music, drama, dance,
videos, technology, and other culturally relevant mediums, we seek to boldly
declare that the Jesus of 2000 years ago is still relevant and changing lives
today!
If you are excited to grow in your faith and want
to see your generation impacted or Christ, come check us out! All are
welcome!
In
Christ Alone,
