The five retreats and kids camp take place during the school year and allow youth with an opportunity to both play and reflect on issues of life and faith. The Summer Mission trips allow youth to be the hands and feet of God, sharing and serving while building community.
“Youth group is a place to escape the daily shenanigans, a place to just be yourself, a place to let go of worries and a place to be with people you can trust and count on. We are fully invested in each other by offering support and a listening ear.”
