Upcoming Series/Events

Worship and Baptism Night - Wednesday, May 2nd

This is a powerful night together. Service time will be normal, but we will be doing a COMBINED night at Sycamore. We will be worshiping and baptizing any student who wants to make that decision. We require students who are interested in being baptized to sign up at YOUTH or email us at youth@celebrate.church. We will also need a parental permission for a student to be baptized.

Series - True Grit

This series is focused on past believers who remained strong and committed no matter the circumstance. We will look at one person each week. The Bible people we will examine are: Daniel, Stephen, Ezra, and Esther. We will be encouraging and challenging students to learn from these men and women about staying committed to God no matter what may happen to in the student's world.

YOUTH LIFE Groups

LIFE Groups are designed to help students build relationships, grow in their faith, and experience genuine Christian community. Groups begin in October and meet consistently through April. LIFE Groups are a key part of our night and important for spiritual growth of our students. YOUTH service runs from 7:00-8:30pm on Wednesday nights.

More Info:
• YOUTH LIFE Groups are separated by age and gender.
• Every LIFE Group is matched with same-sex adult leaders.
• Same Groups meet every week. This enables students to build personal relationships and experience Christian community.
