YOUTH

All Youth, grades 6 thru 12, are welcome to participate in the Youth Ministry at South Jacksonville Presbyterian Church

Throughout the year, we meet on Sunday mornings at 10:00 am for "Sunday Awesome" which is breakfast followed by small group Bible studies.

During the school year we meet weekly on Wednesday and Sunday Nights for fun, fellowship, food, and small group Bible study. We also participate in mission in various way throughout the year including serving dinner at the Sulzbacher Center . For fun we enjoy lock-ins, movie nights, game nights, holiday parties, trips to the beach, and the occasional theme park. Man-hunt and finger rockets are our favorite pastimes.

During the summer the High School students head off to Montreat , North Carolina for the Montreat Youth Conference while our Middle School students take a trip to Massanetta Springs , Virginia for their outstanding Middle School conference. We also enjoy a Mystery Trip together at the end of the summer as a way to welcome rising middle and high school students to the group! If possible, we try to ensure that our church bus will break down at the most inconvenient time and location to build character and fortify our bond as a group. Next year we will add a week-long long-distance mission trip to our list of summer activities!

In all that we do our hope is that the youth of this church will grow in relationship to Jesus Christ, their church family, and each other!

Fall 2009 will usher in a renewed focus on youth ministry as we implement the LOGOS program and engage the entire congregation in our effort to grow young men and women in our faith.
