Set ApartSet apart is our divided guys and girls program. In order to explain how to live a full life as a man or women of God, there must be time set apart from each other to deal with the issues that are specific to our gender.

Pack-Yo-Ride
This is in essence the beginnings of bus ministry. As we do not have buses, we will be asking parents and dedicated volunteers to provide a ride to church. The concept is simple, a teenager sponsored by a parent or volunteer will communicate with the parent as to how many kids will need a ride. The kids come over to the student’s house after school to hang out. At the designated time the parent or volunteer will pick the kids up and drop them off at church. After church the parent that drove them will be responsible to drop them off.
Young LifeYoung life consists of three areas
Home Groups: This is the small group programs that are centralized around small group curriculum at a parent or adult leaders home. Outreach Nights: These are fellowship nights and home hangouts as well as all nighters. These groups will be organized by student leaders and have adult leadership and parent oversight. Young life is our way to connect all our students to each other within their community and help create connection |
