Youth Ministries
What is CROSS Culture Youth Ministry?
Open to all teenagers in the community, CROSS Culture Youth Ministry exists for Jr. High and Sr. High students to explore and develop a relationship with Jesus in fun, interactive ways.
Our Anchor Verse...
"Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is — his good, pleasing and perfect will" (Romans 12:2).

Our goal is to give the kids a chance to continue learning about God’s word and to understand they are important contributors to their community. And, we always have a BLAST!
