In this phase of life, we know friendships matter. At Youth, high schoolers get to connect with each other alongside a dedicated small group leader in a fun, age-appropriate environment. Young people are encouraged to discover and live out their faith story.
Our goal is to help youth know and encounter God, connect with others and discover their purpose. Absolutely everything we do is based around the foundational truth that Jesus is Lord, and that we are all designed to live in an intimate relationship with Him. As young people attend our youth programmes, they will learn who Jesus is, grow closer to God, have heaps of fun and create great relationships with each other!
