Our youth group / Church is tailored to handle 16-19 years olds.

Children of this age group face a lot of pressure and challenges. Our desire is for them not to ignore it but to equipped with the tools they need to overcome the challenges in the society.

Our youth members are taught biblical principles and how to conduct themselves as young people. We hope to see them grow and become leaders and not followers.

We also engage in leisure activities throughout the year such as Youth Camp, basketball, football and bowling and many other activities.

Our Programs

Weekend Services: Sundays, 10:30a.m – 12:30p.m

This is a large group meeting designed to have friendly, challenging, exciting and fun environment. It typically starts with students’ highlights of the week which we call ‘Hi-Lo’. The atmosphere in this service aims to shatter the “Church is Boring” Stereotype. It often involves drama, video, singing, laughter and a message that focuses on moving youth towards a closer walk with God.

Midweek Services: Wednesdays, 7:00pm – 9:00p.m

This is small group focused and is designed to cater for students requiring a deeper walk with the Lord. It focuses on sharing the word (Bible Study), prayers, interactions and personal accountability.

Harmony/Sleep Over Night: One Friday in a Month, 10:00pm – 4:00 am

This program, in conjunction with the teen church is run like a variety night. Drama, video, talent hunt, prayers, games, life skills and motivation are the primary focus of this event. At the end of this session, we believe students leave with a deeper awareness and relationship with God.

Ministry Teams – Meeting times vary

Ministry teams are filled with students involved in areas of ministry based
on their gifts, talents and desires. We’d love all students to be committed
to serving God in at least one area. Some of these areas include: *Events,
Literacy, Drama, Singing/Choir, Media/Computer, Greeters, Prayers, follow-up
etc…

So come and join us we welcome all new members to be a part of our group.
