Welcome to Village Chapel Youth Ministry
Village Chapel Youth Ministry does all that we can to introduce Middle School and High School youth (grades 6th-12th) to Jesus and help them grow in that relationship with Jesus. Like the rest of us, Middle School and High School youth are looking for purpose and meaning in life as they struggle with their own sin, hurts and bad habits. We whole heartedly believe the cure for all of those is a relationship with Jesus Christ. Jesus was 100% man and 100% God who died on the cross and rose again on the third day to redeem the world (all of us) from our sins, hurts, and bad habits. His sacrfice meant our freedom from our sins! We believe that anyone who has a relationship with Jesus should be equiped to live for God (#livefor1). So that is why we do what we do: "we equip middle school and high school youth to live for God." (#livefor1)
