** We will feature each of the four youth ministries in worship twice throughout the school year. We may have them greet, speak, and read in church (if they are comfortable). We will also have a special Time of Celebration featuring that ministry in worship that day.


*** On these evenings, we will begin with all groups together in worship that is designed for youth (6:00-6:30), then everyone will go to their group until the regular ending times for each group.
