Youth GroupAll youth grades 7-12 are invited to the first fall YOUTH GROUP meeting on Sunday, September 24 from 11:30-1:30pm! In addition to lunch and social time, we’re starting our four-part series on The Big Questions. As the church, we have an incredible opportunity to walk with a generation as they ask “Who am I?” – “Where do I fit in?” – and – “Do I matter?”
Join us in a safe and affirming space as we discover faith-centered answers to our biggest questions of identity, belonging, and purpose. This is a great time to jump on board, even if you’ve never participated in Youth Group before, and friends are welcome! If you want to know more, call or email Amy at ahendersonhill@trinityenglish.org. |
