Youth Ministry

The teen years are a time of asking questions, exploring a relationship with Jesus Christ, finding a purpose, making friends and making a difference in the world!
We are excited to be developing ministry to our Students with their imput. Look for new developments in the near future. Currently, we offer Confirmation: A time learning and exploring faith for 7th grade and older, a Youth Group Every other Friday for 5th grade and older and a Senior High Ministry that meets monthly and will attend a Mission Trip in the Summer of 2025.

Growing together.

Whoever you are, wherever you're from, you are welcome here.
