Youth Group

This is our weekly gathering, and its primary goal is for us to actually become a community. The night starts with unstructured time while the youth arrive, often moves into an optional game, and ends in small groups. Each group is led by one or more Youth Leaders (mentors) and is made up of youth who are the same sex and age. We hope this group time helps the youth build friendships with their peers, come to see their leaders as people they can reach out to for mentorship or care, and feel like this is actually their community.

Make no mistake: while the goal of this time isn’t study or teaching, it can still be a place of deep formation in our youth’s lives. As the youth share about their past and present, we aim to give them Jesus-wisdom to live out and reflect on.

Lastly, on the first Tuesday of every month, we have a community meal. The entire Youth Community eats together before breaking into groups.
