Small Groups
Outside of Recharge Youth Group, there are an unlimited number of possibilities for students in grades 6-12 to get plugged into either a life-sharing or Bible Study small group. Each group typically has 4 or 5 youth participants and can meet at church or elsewhere on a weekly basis. Some groups are student-led while others are led by an adult.
Special Events
Events like hayrides, Christian concerts, and weekend retreats are just a few of the opportunities that are periodically scheduled for both Jr. and Sr. High students. Some events are scheduled by our church, while others are planned along with other churches in order to provide more energy and community in Christ.
CHIC 2012
CHIC is the once-every-three-years national youth gathering of The Evangelical Covenant Church.
Service and Mission
Serving others is a key component as we grow in our faith. We frequently offer opportunities for youth to serve others in nursing homes, Bread of Life food pantry ministry, and worship services. Mission trips outside the area are also planned from time to time in addition to other opportunities that the Lord provides.
Parent Support
The Bible reminds us in Deuteronomy that parents have the primary responsibility of raising children to know and have a relationship with God through Jesus Christ. At the same time, the church is commanded to provide help and encouragement to parents. In response to this, we offer free resources to support and encourage parents of teens.
Permission & Medical Forms
In order to participate in special events (off site), each student must fill out and turn in a Permission Form. (PDF)You do not need this form to attend Recharge or other events held at the church.
Youth Ministry Leadership Team
All of this is possible because of God's provision of dedicated adult leaders and interested youth taking on leadership roles. Our youth ministry team meets regularly at the church to plan fun, enjoyable, and spiritually enriching programming. These meetings include a devotional message, event planning, training, mutual support, fun & prayer. High school students are given opportunities in leadership and are exposed to situations where they lead younger students.
If you are interested in serving on the youth ministry team, please read and sign our Guidelines for Leadership.
