Youth Ministry
We provide a thriving community for 8th through 12th graders where they can connect with one another, grow in faith and serve the community. Youth Ministry takes elements of Religious Education — building a community, being of service, discussing topics, and sharing prayer – and reformats them into a program where young people can continue their lifelong journey of growing in faith. It’s a flexible format that allows teens to participate in what they choose, according to their schedules. Teens do not have to regularly attend meetings to participate. New members are ALWAYS welcome at any time!
