Our Youth Ministry
The youth ministry at Western Avenue Baptist Church is split into High School and Middle School. The High School Ministry is designed to target students in 9th through 12th grade and the Middle School Ministry is designed for students in 6th through 8th grade.
The key to having a God-honoring youth ministry is the same to having a God-honoring church: remain focused on and committed to the purpose for your existence. For a church (and a youth ministry), that purpose is to obey the commands of Christ called the Great Commandment and the Great Commission.
The Great Commandment tells us to love God with all our being and to love our neighbors as ourselves. The Great Commission tells us to GO and reach and teach all those around us about the life-changing gospel of Jesus Christ. There are five important areas of purpose within these two commands—Evangelism, Worship, Fellowship, Discipleship and Ministry. |
