Calvary Chapel Southbury Teen Ministry

Teen Youth Group (12 to 18 years old)

Our vision for the Teen Youth Group is to encourage teens to seek the Lord Jesus Christ and have a personal relationship with Him. Meetings include Bible study, fun, refreshments, and an opportunity to make a difference in the community.

The group meets Thursday evenings from 7:00 to 8:00 and Sunday mornings from 10:30-11:30 two to three times per month. Teens are encouraged to join their parents in the main sanctuary for worship on the Sundays that Youth Group is not held.

At Calvary Southbury, many children are part of our church family, including teens. As these Christian youth mature, they require more than just Sunday school instruction, for a variety of reasons:

They may not have grown up in church or may not be saved yet
They have different interests than small children
They are in that difficult, transitional period between childhood and adulthood, which can be a confusing time, creating unique struggles
They are able to understand the Bible in a deeper way

To this end, we strive to supply them with sound Biblical doctrine, presented in an interactive and vitally applicable way, always keeping it relevant to their life as a teen. This includes applying the lessons taught to their daily life in school, with friends, family - perhaps even at work. They come to learn without feeling that they are in a formal classroom - but never compromising doctrine.

In addition to this, we have regular activities outside of the church that they can participate in, such as BMX bike riding, sports, bonfires, hiking, camping, etc.
