Sunday, December 25th – NO YOUTH GROUP! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
Serving, fellowship, worshiping, sharing, growing in faith, and building friendships. That’s what our youth group is all about. Youth from 6th grade through 12th grade gather each Wednesday evening (see more below) to learn more about various chapters in the Bible. Throughout the year, we also meet on Sunday afternoons or evenings (times and activities vary so watch the newsletter) to serve others, participate in group outings, worship together, and listen to guest speakers. We have many exciting activities coming up this Fall. I encourage all of the youth to worship together at the second service. A spot is being designated JUST FOR YOU in the sanctuary. Come lift your hands and voices in praise and worship for our Lord! Check it out! Youth, come get inspired, build your faith, and become a leader for your peers! Let’s build something AMAZING together!!!
