Youth Ministry
Youth Ministry is very important to us at First Baptist. Foundational to our youth program is Sunday School. Sunday School is the primary place where our junior and senior high youth engage in a weekly Bible study. Sunday School is held on Sundays at 9:45am, and the classes last for one hour. Each class is led by a gifted teacher, and the lessons are complimented by age-appropriate activities to help youth integrate the Bible lesson.
On Sunday evenings the youth participate in and lead their own worship service. The service is proceeded by a meal, prepared especially for the youth, and is followed by a time of fellowship and activities.
There's plenty of activity on Wednesday evenings for youth as well. Mission education groups meet on Wednesday evenings along with BMX, a ministry aimed directly toward high school males. BMX is sports oriented and offers a time for playing, learning the rules of the game, as well as developing Christian sportsmanship.
Activities are planned year-round for youth. Summer camps, along with special outings such as bowling, skating, movies, are some of the typical activities. Ski trips, national and international mission trips, and special youth events are offered as well.
We realize that junior and senior high are spiritually formative years for youth. One of our main goals is to better equip them spiritually as they prepare for college and life as a young adult.
