High school youth ministry meets every 2nd and 4th Sunday of the month from 12:30 – 2:30 pm in ‘The Shack’. These sessions are youth-led, with discussion time set aside to talk about real-life teenage issues and how our Christian faith helps us work through those issues. We also stress the importance of serving our community with many service events scheduled throughout the year.
