Teens
Our youth ministry has one main focus - reaching teens with the gospel of Jesus Christ and then discipling them to serve Him faithfully. That's why we make God's Word, the Bible, a big part of our youth meetings and activities. Any time you come to one of our Sunday School classes, youth group meetings on Wednesday nights, or monthly activities, you can expect to hear teaching and preaching from the Bible. Sound boring? No way! There is nothing more exciting than learning the real answers to life's biggest questions from the God who made all things.
We do believe that good Christian fun and fellowship is an important part of our teen program, too. (Take a look at some youth event pictures on our church and school photo gallery page.) Below is just a sample of activities you may find our teens involved in during the course of a year: Youth Mission Trip, Junior High Summer Camp at Northland in Wisconsin, High School Summer Camp at The Wilds in North Carolina, Ski Trip, Winter Retreat, Hay Ride, Cedar Point, and various service activities.
