Youth Sunday School
We meet every Sunday for Sunday School at 9am upstairs in the Youth Room. We have a great time with prayer, Bible study, and games. The class is taught by Jana Williams and we are studying the gospel of Luke.
Youth Group
We meet every Thursday for Youth Group from 7pm to 8:30pm at the church. We have snacks, games, worship, prayer, and in-depth Bible study. Come join us!
Youth Activities
We have one fun group activity or trip per month and one service project per month. During the school year we volunteer at the Somerset County Mobile Food Bank every other month and we do a service at Meadow View Nursing Home every other month. See a full schedule of our youth activities near the bottom of this page.
Youth Group
Thursdays from 7pm to 8:30pm at the church
We usually start with snacks and warm up activities, then a lesson in the youth room, and we end with an active game.
In 2025 our theme will be a Gospel Deep Dive into the book of Luke. Our goal is to help the youth gain a deep understanding of who Jesus is. We are going to spend the whole year going verse by verse through the gospel of Luke. We’ll take a deep dive into Jesus’s teachings, miracles, and travels. We want our youth to engage deeply and see the Bible come to life. We’ve done that through regular service projects, educational trips, mission trips, and Winter Camp. And that’s just the beginning! Join us in our upcoming adventures.
Upcoming Activity: Winter Retreat
The Youth Group will go to Winter Retreat at High Point Camp from Friday, January 24th to Sunday, January 26th.
Curriculum Schedule
A Parent Paper is sent out every week with more details about what we are studying in Youth Sunday School and Youth Group that week. It includes the Bible chapters, main themes, songs, an educational video, and a prompt that gives you something to talk about with your youth. Contact Jana if you would like to receive the Parent Paper.
January Devotions 2025
For our daily devotions we are currently going through a devotional book called “Pray Every Day: 90 Days of Prayer from God’s Word.” This book is a journey through some of the most powerful prayers in the Bible. The goal is to help our youth gain a better understanding of what prayer is and how to build their own prayer life. They will see how prayer worked in the lives of God’s people from Genesis to Revelation. We started these devotions on October 25th and will go to the end of January.
