Youth & Family"We believe that it is not religion that makes the difference but lifestyle. Nearly every week there is some sort of activity or event. These activities and events are designed not just to bring young people into the building for fun but to raise up a generation of believers who are building their relationship with Christ through lifestyle discipleship."
