YOUTH MINISTRY PURPOSE STATEMENT

Our Youth Ministry exists to REACH non-believing
students, to CONNECT them with other Christians, to help
them GROW in their faith, and to challenge the growing to
DISCOVER their ministry and HONOR God with their life.

Welcome to our student ministry page where we seek to know Jesus

and make Him known! If you are interested in current or upcoming

events, please check out the "Upcoming Events" listed to the right.

--------------------------------------------------

Our purpose statement reflects the five Biblical purposes that we hope to accomplish in our ministry. They are:

EVANGELISM -- sharing the good news of Jesus Christ with those who don't yet have a personal relationship with Him.
WORSHIP -- celebrating God's presence and honoring Him with our lifestyle.
FELLOWSHIP -- having authentic Christian relationships where we are known, cared for, held accountable, and encouraged in our spiritual journey.
DISCIPLESHIP -- helping students become more like Christ.
MINISTRY -- meeting needs with love.

We plan events to accomplish our purposes!
