Weekly and Monthly Activities
|
Sunday School
Sunday School is a time for the youth to dive deep into the Word of God. It is a time of intensive learning and discussion, and young men and women will grow in their faith through the Confirmation classes and then deal with how the Bible interacts with their lives during their senior high classes. |
First Youth Fellowship
First Youth Fellowship is a time for young people to enjoy a night of food, fellowship, games, and a Bible lesson. Students will be given a chance to interact with other youth and be introduced to the Word of God in a fun and new way.
First Youth Fellowship takes place each Sunday Night in the PAD from 5:00-6:00 p.m., with dinner from 6:00-6:30 p.m.

Small Groups
Small Groups offer youth the opportunity to gather in same-gender groups to discuss current issues and to build a mentoring relationship with positive role models. In these group settings, students share thoughts and devotions and are able to grow their relationships with Christ and have their voices heard. Small Groups meet on the third Sunday of the month in place of First Youth Fellowship. |
