Youth
We aspire to make disciples who love God and seek to follow Jesus for His glory.
About the ministry
As a ministry, the gospel is central. The gospel is the good news of the Bible that Jesus Christ came to save sinners by dying on the cross for their sins and rose again to show his victory over sin and death.
The gospel is what unites and gathers His believers. The youth ministry aims to connect with others through love and fellowship, gathering together to worship God through the study of His word and prayer.
As a ministry, we seek to grow through gospel-centred discipleship, the study of God’s Word and prayer, while relying on the work of the Holy Spirit.
The ministry also wishes for the youths to go and spread the gospel of Jesus Christ -- His life, death and resurrection -- through our witness, service, missions and evangelism
Who is it for
We welcome teenagers and youths who are between the ages of 13 to 18, i.e. mainly Sec 1 to JC 2.
When do we meet
We meet on the first three Saturdays of every month from 730 to 930pm. We also encourage our youth to gather outside during informal gatherings and will often hold social events during the school holidays.
