Youth Group photo gallery

Youth leaders offer young people a place to belong and strong spiritual support, while providing fun and challenging activities that encourage teens to invite their friends. The youth group has been meeting via Zoom during the pandemic, with creative "challenges" (inspired by popular TV reality shows) to do at home while video-chatting online with the leaders and the rest of the group. 

For information about our Youth program, contact Pastor Teresa Woodworth.email
