For the youth

Youth Ministries

For our community youths, we offer a wide variety of opportunities for them to grow and develop their faith with their peers

  • T.A.G.

    Teens about God

    What is TAG?  Our Ministry to Middle and High School youth goes by the name of TAG.  TAG is short for Teens About God, but the name goes much deeper than that.  When a person “TAGs” something, they are either (1) marking it as their own, or (2) playing a game when one person is “it” and is trying to make other people "it" as well by touching them.  Both of those definitions apply to our Youth Ministry.  To begin with we are “TAGged” by God when we are marked as His own through the blood of Jesus Christ.  Then we are called to go and make disciples of all nations, basically TAGging them to share the good news of Jesus Christ with them.

  • Student

    leadership

    development

    team

    The Student Leadership Development Team (SLDT) is the tool to equip and encourage youth as leaders as they learn to use their gifts in ministry.  Involvement in leadership gives youth a sense that they are making a difference; Training for leadership equips youth for lifelong ministry; Holding responsibility for leadership lets the youth feel they are making the major decisions; and Handling leadership responsibility develops character.  There will be a variety of positions within the SLDT for high school students who are interested in serving the Lord and other youth in ministry. 

    Student Leadership Development Team Goals:

    We believe that high school Christians should be:

    • Growing In Their Faith – therefore, we will strive to be regularly involved in worship and study as well as spending time with God in Prayer and Devotions daily!
    • Concerned For The Lost – therefore, we will focus on reaching out to youth with the good news of Jesus Christ.
    • Informed – therefore, we will spend time studying tools of Youth Ministry, trends in the church, and methods of effective leadership.
    • Articulate – therefore we will work at how to present Jesus Christ attractively and convincingly to both members and visitors.
    • Compassionate – therefore, we will be involved in programs that meet peoples’ needs (Servant Events, Service Projects, Elementary Ministry, and Retirement Ministry).
    • Supportive – therefore, we will work at building a strong Christian community.
    • Responsible – therefore, we will hold each other accountable for what we have committed to.
