Calendar

 

Our Middle School group meets on Sunday nights, 4:00 to 6:00, at our Activities and Outreach Center (behind the church across Third Street).  A special program is designed just for this age group with snacks, discussion, and fun activities.  Our yearly activities include lock-ins, pool parties, putt-putt, bowling, etc.  In the fall, we have a big kickoff where we make plans for the entire year.  Also in the fall, we attend the NaCoMe Church Camp Fall Retreat (along with 150 youth from middle Tennessee).

Our Senior High youth meet on Sunday nights, 4:00 to 6:00 pm, at our Activities and Outreach Center (behind the church across Third Street).  We meet for fellowship, snacks, and fun activities.  We have weekly discussions on topics picked by the youth (such as stress, dating, peer pressure, etc.).   We also meet each Wednesday night from 6:30 to 7:30.  This is a youth-lead Bible devotion and we go out to eat at a local restaurant.

We have a major Youth Group kickoff event in the fall.  Also in the fall, we go to the NaCoMe Church Camp Fall Youth Retreat where we meet youth from all over middle Tennessee.  Some of our trips include snow skiing, sports events in Nashville, and white-water rafting.  In the summer, we go on a Mission Trip and a youth conference in Montreat, NC.
