Youth Ministry meets every Sunday at 10:00am during the
Sunday Service. Check in in the lobby with the lead teacher
or the Director of Youth & Family, or go directly to
the stage to sign your children in and stay with them until
we leave for our classroom. You are welcome to stay with
your children until they feel comfortable in the classroom.
