Heaven Bound Youth Group - High School and Middle School
Our youth are faced with more challenges today than ever. Heaven Bound Youth Group equips students with the tools necessary to face those challenges. Our youth group is composed of grades 6-12. The youth learn how to support each other as a group by building a relationship with God. This is achieved through continuous learning of God's word as well as the power of prayer. Here they apply their skills by seeking ways to share God's love with others in our church and community. Heaven Bound Youth have an opportunity to have fun and enjoy friends, family and God.
Sunday School
We meet every Sunday at 9am. Both Middle and High School students build onto their foundation in innovative ways to study the Bible using more in depth analysis and application of the lessons.
Youth Night
Meets every Wednesday from 7pm to 8:30pm. Here students can get together for fellowship, games and Bible Study. It is an informal approach focusing on God's word and prayer. More time is spent applying God's word today and how it fits into our youth's lives.
