Youth Ministry (6th – 12th Grade)

Diakonia Youth exists to connect students with God, with each other, and with their God-given purpose. In a world that constantly competes for the attention and allegiance of young people, we provide a Christ-centered environment where teens can ask hard questions, wrestle with real issues, and discover the relevance of the Gospel for their lives.

Our weekly youth group meets on Wednesday evenings and includes worship, teaching, small group discussions, and games. We also offer retreats, mission trips, service projects, and social events throughout the year. Our goal is to raise up a generation of young men and women who love God deeply, think critically, and live courageously for Christ.

Our volunteer team of 15 adult leaders includes Bible teachers, small group facilitators, and mentors who walk alongside students through the joys and challenges of adolescence. We also equip parents through quarterly parent forums and a weekly parent devotional email.
