We currently number more than twenty in our membership. This is an active youth ministry -- we meet regularly
for fun and fellowship and participate in service projects in and around the church and community.
We can be found helping during church clean-up projects, collecting food for the local food pantry,
attending Christian music concerts, helping to cook at church breakfasts and dinners . . .
and just plain having fun! If you are in seventh through twelfth grade we'd love to have you join us!
