Youth Ministry

In a "NO" world, youth receive ongoing affirmation that God has said "YES" to them in their baptism. Through District youth gatherings, Youth in Mission events, and District camps, as well as support of local youth ministry, youth are given opportunities to say "YES" to growth in Christ, leadership development, and mission service.
