Sunday Morning
On a Sunday morning the youth are split into two groups: Junior High (grades 6-8) and Senior High (grades 9-12). They meet to discuss God’s word, and understand how to apply it to their lives. A strong cast of biblically knowledgeable adult teachers help guide the youth into truth. On Sunday mornings, God’s word comes alive as the Holy Spirit moves.
Wednesday Night
There are multiple formats on a Wednesday night. This is a great place to bring friends, enjoy snacks, play games, and build relationships. The youth have some time to hang out with their friends and play games after a long day of school. Afterwards the Jr. and Sr. high combine for a large group activity. Typically the first Wednesday of the month, the youth lead a worship night.
Following these activities there is a large group Bible focused lesson geared toward youth culture, which is then followed up with small group discussion broken into Jr. and Sr. high groups.
Regular Events
A strong group of committed adult volunteers help organize and lead regular events throughout the year. These include Retreats, Service Trips, a YMCA Swim Night, Summer Hang-outs, a Corn Maze and Hayride, and much more!
