Youth

Our youth ministry program provides more than just classes -- it offers a comprehensive program for developing young lives for Christ. The program includes Sunday morning classes, mission projects, local service projects, midweek ConneXion Points, special activities, area-wide events, ministry training opportunities, and much more.

Our Philosophy
Effective youth ministry needs to be:

  • Incarnational - focused on building relationships and modeling the Christian life.  We don't want to just talk about faith, we want to live it!
  • Transformational - providing opportunities to grow in Christ and be shaped into His image.
  • Intentional - everything we do is for a purpose.

REACH Events
Throughout the year, about once a month, we will have a different REACH event designed to provide opportunities for teens to stretch and grow in these 3 areas of their Christian lives:

  • REACH Up - Experiential worship events focused on building a deeper relationship with God.
  • REACH In - Relationship building events focused on growing the youth group together as a family in the body of Christ.
  • REACH Out - Outreach events focused on serving others in the Love of Christ.
