We minister to young people from Middle School to university, from adolescence to early adulthood.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Purpose<\/strong><br \/>\nThe purpose of the Youth Ministry is twofold, targeting the young people and<br \/>\ntheir parents. It seeks to:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Evangelize and disciple young people to apply Christian principles in every area of their lives (II Tim. 2:2).<\/li>\n<li>Equip and support parents in their biblical responsibility of raising their children for the Lord (Mal. 4:7). Parents carry the primary Biblical mandate to teach their children (Deut. 6:6-7; Eph. 6:4). By supporting them in their parenting role, the church seeks to promote a positive influence on the young people.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Regular activities:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Wednesday evening-Youth Group meets each Wednesday evening from 7:30 to 9:30. The evening starts with games and fellowship (basketball, table games, video games, etc.) followed by Bible study, where we meditate on a portion of the Scriptures, in search of practical applications for today&#8217;s youth; we break in small groups for discussions around the Bible lesson. We close our meeting with refreshments.<\/li>\n<li>Youth Sunday Service-We also hold Youth Sunday worship services at least twice a month (the 3rd and 4th Sundays of the month), from 11:00 to 12:45. Young people take responsibility for serving and leading these services.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Special activities:<\/strong><br \/>\nSeveral special activities are planned throughout the year-ice skating parties, all-nighter events, youth rallies, revival meetings, etc. These special events are planned and announced on our Wednesday Youth Group meetings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\nRedemption Baptist Church &#8211; Youth Ministry<br \/>\nThe youth ministry at Redemption Baptist Church is vibrant, diverse and challenging.
