outh Ministries serves middle and high school students by creating a vibrant and inclusive environment where they can explore their faith, build meaningful relationships, and grow spiritually. Through engaging Sabbath School sessions, hands-on community service projects, in-depth Bible studies, and fun social gatherings, we aim to guide our youth on a journey that strengthens their connection to God and each other. Our dedicated leaders and pastors are committed to fostering a safe and supportive space where every young person feels valued, inspired, and encouraged to live out their faith in practical ways.
Churches across the country are both shrinking and aging as more young people disengage. However, there are scores of congregations that are bucking this trend and developing cultures that welcome, empower, and engage teenagers and young adults.
The Fuller Youth Institute (FYI) has conducted groundbreaking research with over 250 of these leading congregations to learn what they do right. Based on this study of a diverse group of churches, six essential strategies have been discovered that any church can use to better involve and retain young people. What’s more, when these innovative churches engage younger generations, it breathes life and vitality into the whole church. Through the Growing Together Seminar, rather than sorting through the numerous strategies you could try, we’ll help you focus on what’s most essential in helping young people discover and love your church.
