Youth

  Youth Pastor Ryan L.


Psalm 42:1, "As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, O God." 

We are a word based ministry.  That means that everything that we do is founded on the teachings in the Word of God.

We are Pentecostal.  We believe in the baptism in the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in other tongues.

 

Purpose. To have our actions of service infect our culture with God's love, while standing tall with God's strength.

Youth Service.  We have youth church every Wednesday Night at 7:00pm.  This is a service where young people can worship God in their own way.  We generally have about 40 youth attend our Wednesday night worship service.

Drama.  We have an active drama ministry including skits, videos, and full dramas.

 

Youth Missions.  We are currently involved in a local mission called sidewalk Sunday School.  It is our desire to effectively bring the gospel to as many people as we can.  We desire to work in cooperation with other local and state churches to edify the kingdom of God.

Vision. To see our lives take on God's characteristics because of our adoration of Him. (Matthew 22:37) Our number one goal is to open our hearts to God's voice. To have lives devoted to each other's. (Matthew 22:39, Galatians 6:2) Our relationships should be strong enough to endure the greatest challenges. To put our faith into practice with a life devoted to service. (James 2:18, Matthew 20:28) We are called to live like Jesus, to serve and change the culture, in which we live with our lives. To live with Strength and Courage. (Joshua 1:9, 1 Kings 2:2, Psalm 28:7, 1 Corinthians 16:13)
