Youth Ministry
Monica Harbarger – Director of Youth Ministry (Amet
consectitur)
Purpose
At Pleasant Hill we firmly believe that the youth are the future of
the church. Our Youth Minister organizes devotionals, recreational
activities and seasonal trips to encourage spiritual growth and
bonding. The Church also sponsors summer camp activities at Camp
Sumatanga. These years for youth can be very turbulent. Our goal is
to provide a network of leaders and friends that give support and
guidance as they develop a closer relationship to Christ. We have
blessings to share!
Visitors are always welcome!
Bible study activities
Sunday School
10:00 a.m.
The Sunday School hour begins at 10:00 a.m. This is an opportunity
for youth to study relevant bible lessons pertaining to the
Christian Season. Youth are divided into middle school and senior
high classes.
Sunday Evenings
3:00 - 7:00 p.m.
The Impact Cafe opens at 3 p.m on Sunday afternoons so that the
youth can fellowship together. We come together at 5 p.m. to eat and
follow the meal with a program that may includes music, skits,
videos and games with a purpose!
Wednesday Evenings 3:00
- 8:00 p.m.
We have the Impact Cafe open at 3p.m so the students can come
directly from school and have time for homework, games, or just to
hang out. We share a meal together with the church at 6 p.m. then
the youth gather back in the Impact Cafe for an evening of small
groups that focuses on Christ in our Culture and Media. These
evenings are built on Christian trust and confidentiality in order
to foster growth in our relationships with each other as well as our
relationship with Christ..
RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES
Fireside
Fireside is held on the fourth Sunday night in place of our Sunday
evening activities. A church member opens their home up to the youth
and a meal is provided. The youth are given the chance to recreate
as well as get to know the hosts better. Devotionals are held before
returning back to the church.
impact café
The Impact Café is the gathering area for the youth. The café has a
pool table, ping pong table, stage, kitchen, and big screen TV. This
is open during football season after home games and is a valuable
tool for community outreach. It is open throughout the week after
school and special activities such as concerts and guest speakers
gather here.
