Youth Bible Study & Small Groups
Youth Bible studies and small groups are an excellent way for youth to explore their faith, prayer, study and fellowship. Sessions are held periodically throughout the year, particularly during Advent and Lent seasons. Many of these classes are held during weekday evenings, be sure to continue to check out our current events section for upcoming Bible studies and small groups.

Christians and the Meaning of Human Sexuality
This weekend workshop offered each February provides an opportunity for youth and their parents, within the context of the Christian faith, to learn, discern and discuss values and opinions on sexuality-related issues. The Jr. High weekend is offered in even numbered years and the Sr. High weekend in odd numbered years. These workshops are not like school.
