Teens
YPA (Young People's Association)
At Abiding Word, the teens are a very important part of the congregation. With the temptations that young people face today, our church offers a safe, Christian environment for teens to strengthen their faith, build good Christian character, and form life-long friendships.
To help build the next generation of leaders, a three pronged approach is used at our church. Our teen program emphasizes time in study of God's Word, where knowledge of Christianity is deepened and faith is strengthened. Second, we believe that it is important to teach our young people to contribute to the community and the church. We sponsor church and community service projects for the teens on a bi-monthly basis. Finally, we believe that teens need a safe and welcoming environment to have fun. The church provides opportunities to get together on a monthly basis.
The youth group includes all high school age teens in the congregation.
