1 Timothy 4:12: Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.

Explore the Faith

The youth program here at Good Shepherd is constantly growing and thriving. We provide a variety of groups and activities to meet the needs and interests of all our young believers.

We are a very active group that has at least one event scheduled every week. We participate in plenty of service opportunities as well as events that are just a great time of fellowshipping and growing in faith together.

Join a Group

We have a group for every child of God.

Family: We offer a number of events for the entire family to enjoy together. Young families are encouraged to come to our monthly Young Family Bible Study.

Pre-K/Kindergarten: Open to all youth above the age of 3. We are currently in the process of planning more regular events. In the meantime, young families are encouraged to come to our monthly Young Family Bible Study.

Elementary: Open to all youth in grades 1-5. We tend to have one or two events a month for this age.
