5th & 6th Grade Youth PoP’s 5th & 6th Grade youth group is our newest student ministry group. We seek to give 5th and 6th grade students a place where they belong, where they can have their relationship with Jesus strengthened and build friendships with one another.

Generally, we meet one time a month (a number of times we've done a Friday evening—it seems to work for most). We offer a balanced menu of activities:  

  • fun and fellowship activities;
  • service to others in our community;
  • times of learning and growth.

College-age Ministry seeks to connect college and career age students to one another. Some basic offerings in this ministry include:

  • Dinner & Dialogue meets during the summer months help students re-connect. Typically, we gather in a home for a shared dinner and to discuss topics of interest, centered on God's word.
  • Spring Retreat Back On
  • Throughout the school year we seek to connect and encourage the college students in a variety of ways (i.e. care packages and mailings).
