Welcome!
As Christians, we are stronger when we do life together and walk alongside each other through good and bad times in our lives. Our Young Adult Ministry exists to connect all those who consider themselves young adults – generally those in their 20s and 30s – and encourage them to walk alongside one another and grow their relationship with God.
We design events around Food, Fun, Faith, and Function, and we love connecting our young adults with Bible studies, discipleship resources, and opportunities to serve.
