Youth Group Sundays at 6:00 PMOur youth group meets weekly. We begin with announcements and praise songs. Then we break into smaller Bible study groups for grades 6-8 and 9-12. After Bible study, we relax with games. We also try to do at least one special activity each month, which includes events such as trips to Great America or to Christian music concerts, service projects for congregation members, or pizza and games. These events are good opportunities for newcomers to get involved without putting a lot of pressure on them. The youth group also participates in occasional overnight events during the year and typically one major trip every summer. This summer mission trip might be to another community, another state, or even another country. They are all focused on offering service and the love of God to those in need. It is always exciting to hear our young people recount during worship their experiences on mission trips. Many of them give emotionally moving testimonies of ways they have experienced Christ. It is clear that attending a mission trip is an important milestone in the faith journey of many of our youth. | |||||
