The purpose of our youth ministry is to influence teens to magnify the splendor of God by loving the Lord with all their hearts, minds, and strength and by loving others as they love themselves (Matthew 22:36-40). To this end, the youth ministry will strive to influence youth for God’s glory by seeking to nurture a growing intimacy with Christ, the loving service of others, and the faithful evangelization of the lost. These goals are based upon the following core values:
- the Word of God
- Christian growth
- a community of brotherly love
- ministry to others
Come join us! We regularly meet as a youth group twice each week:
On Wednesdays, we gather from 6:30-8:00pm. These evenings include studying the Bible together, small-group discussion and prayer, corporate singing, and lots of fun!
On Sundays, we meet from 9:45-10:45am to study God’s Word and sing before joining the rest of our church for our morning worship service.
