Welcome to Abide Youth
At Abide Youth, we are passionate about helping students encounter the life-changing love of Jesus and build a foundation of faith that endures. Our mission is to cultivate deep, personal relationships with Christ while creating a vibrant community where teens can grow together in their walk with Him.
Why We Do What We Do
Today’s teens face countless challenges, from questions of identity and purpose to struggles with anxiety and acceptance. At Abide Youth, we believe that a personal relationship with Jesus is the only place to find salvation, hope, peace, and true transformation. Our goal is to equip students to live out their faith boldly, no matter what life brings, and to experience the abundant life found in Him.
How We Do What We Do
We focus on five core principles:
Applying His Word: Teaching students to know and live by Scripture in their everyday lives.
Belonging to Community: Building meaningful relationships with peers and mentors who uplift and encourage.
Intimate Worship: Creating spaces for students to connect with God through worship and praise.
Devoted Prayer: Encouraging personal and collective prayer to deepen faith and trust in God.
Exercising the Gifts: Empowering students to discover and use their God-given gifts and talents to serve others.
What We Do
Abide Youth is a place for students to grow spiritually, build friendships, and serve others. Here are some ways we engage and equip:
Wednesday Night Youth Service: A dynamic weekly gathering with worship, teaching, and small groups.
Special Events: Girls’ and guys’ nights, summer camps, mission trips, and fun activities that foster connection.
Podcast Stories: Opportunities for students to share their stories and explore how God is working in their lives.
Topical Studies: Periodic deep dives into relevant issues, helping students address life’s questions through a Biblical lens.
