The mission of our teen ministry here at FBC is to see Christ formed in the hearts of youth and their lives dedicated to service of Him. This is why we are called APEX: Actively Pursing Excellence. We strive to develop a strong biblical foundation in our teens that will help them pursue Christlikeness in the turbulent world we live.

“Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth.”—2 Timothy 2:15

We meet weekly during the school year on Friday nights from 7-10pm at the church. A typical night at APEX includes a time of worship, intentional time in God’s word, and some good old fashioned fun. You can look forward to different events each week that vary from games in the gym, to eating pudding with just your face. We like to have a good time together and we hope you can join us!

On Sunday mornings, our junior and senior high students meet in the youth room before morning service for a separate time of Bible study with our committed team of Sunday School teachers. Our Sunday School curriculum consists of both expository and topical teaching from The Gospel Project curriculum.

cabin Winter Retreats

Every year we take off during the Winter months for a weekend away at New Life Camp. It is a weekend full of Bible lessons, small groups, amazing food, fellowship, very little sleep, and so much more! We hear from some great speakers and teens are given the opportunity to share their testimonies. These Retreats are a time we can be away from the busyness of everyday life and spend some intentional time together as a group diving deep into our relationship with God and each other.

accessibility Volunteer Opportunities

We have lots of ways for teens to get involved inside and outside of the church. From praise team, to greeting, to serving meals at Ray of Hope, we have tons of opportunities for you to serve. For more information on how to get plugged in contact Pastor Matt.
