YOUTH GROUP

It’s more than dodgeball and all-nighters! We’re dedicated to inviting students to “come and see” Jesus Christ (John 1:46), equipping them with a theologically sound understanding of the Bible, and providing guidance and encouragement for those who have chosen to follow Jesus (Matthew 4:19a).

Teenagers are not the “someday in the future” church — they are an integral part of the Church today who should be encouraged to participate in the life of the local church (Hebrews 10:25).

Engrained with all the games, events, food, and time with friends is the underlying goal of young followers of Jesus becoming “fishers of people” (Matthew 4:19b) who are able to share their faith with friends, family, and neighbors (1 Peter 3:15).

Sunday School

We believe every child should know that Jesus loves them unconditionally! It’s our desire to help kids of all ages develop a deep understanding of the Bible so that they are able to make wise decisions every day. Both is accomplished through scripture memorization at AWANA!

  • We want all kids to know they are part of the Church! We begin the service together and after some time of praise and song, kids are welcome to either go to Children’s Church or stay in the worship service with their parents.

    Nursery is available to those 3 years and under if desired.

  • It’s ok! We understand that kids can be loud. Jesus told his disciples not prevent the little children from coming to him so that’s how we want to respond — everyone is welcome!

  • We usually have a small skit of some kind around Christmas and Easter for the kids to participate in.
