Hi, I'm Kim Ward, director of youth activities at CCC. Our youth
group meets twice a week from
6:45pm - 8:45pm at the Ella Noyes Youth Center, just South of the
church. Activities include Bible studies, games, movies, food, and
more.
Our theme verse is:
Jeremiah 24:7(MSG)
7"And I'll give them a heart to know me, God. They'll be
my people and I'll be their God, for they'll have returned to me
with all their hearts."
With our theme in
mind, on Monday nights we have a "serious" night devoted to spending
time getting to know God, who He is, and what His desire is for us
as His people. While we still have some fun activities, it's geared
more towards those who have already begun a relationship with Him or
those who are earnestly seeking Him.
Wednesdays are an
outreach/fun night with the goal being to introduce those who don't
know Him, to our amazing God. It's a chance for us to go back to the
basics of who God is and his desire for all of us to have a
relationship with Him. We have games, music, singing, and a short
talk. About once a month on Wednesdays we have a movie night.
We have also
started to attend the Awaken youth conference held in Atascadero in
November of each year. This is an amazing local event designed to
help challenge the students in their relationship with God and
awaken a desire to know and serve Him more.
Some of our events
like movie nights, all nighters', and game days are chances for
students to invite their friends and get them involved with youth
group so that they will want to come back and learn more about God.
Our retreats, youth camps, and conferences are for our students to
get energized to know God and really be challenged to follow Him
with all their hearts. With all the events the goal is to reach
students with God's love and to encourage them to grow in a
relationship with Him.
We've also had
overnighters at CCC, a great hotdog & hamburger feast put on by some
of the BBQ specialists at church, and other activities. .
In 2003, we took a
trip to Tijuana and built houses for the
less fortunate.
Check us out. If
you want a place to hang out, hear some great stories, play some
games and eat snacks, we are here for YOU!
