ABOUT OUR YOUTH GROUPS

Formerly known as the "Cool Beans" We have an entirely new group of middle & high-schoolers this year & they're still deciding on a name.

The youth group meets once a month in the Youth Building, (the house behind the playground). Meetings are usually on the first Sunday of the month, from approximately 11:30 - 1:30. The schedule sometimes varies due to the volunteer staff's schedule, and the length of the meetings varies according to the activity.

The meetings/activities are co-ordinated by the adult volunteers. The kid's decide on their activities with suggestions and guidance from the adults.

This group provides opportunities for the kid's to have fun, get to know each other better, and develop strong, long lasting friendships within the Christian community in supervised settings.

A few of the activities this year have been a "mystery dinner" and an "amazing race", both were fun for the kids' & volunteer's!

For more information or to volunteer contact Angeli Chin-Franz by e-mail at Y4C@embarqmail.com, or call the Church & they'll put you in touch.
