SENIOR HIGH YOUTH GROUP

The Senior High Youth Group meets most Sundays from September through May. We gather in the NEW Youth Space of the South Church Community Building located at 6 South State Street from 7:00 – 8:30pm. Our meetings range from hanging out and making friends to working in local mission to planning our annual mission trip always discovering the places where we can make a difference. As the above poster states the Loft is a safe space, this is where we talk about the real issues that we are all facing.

Senior High Youth on Mission to Chicago April 2008


One of the highlights of our year together is the spring mission trip during April school vacation. Recently we have traveled to such places as Philadelphia, Puerto Rico, and Indian Reservations of the southwest, Harlan, Kentucky, Atlanta, Georgia and Washington D.C. During our week of mission we volunteer with local agencies working to combat homelessness, affordable housing and hunger. Please contact Rev. Carlos for information on the Spring 2010 mission trip!
