Youth Purpose & Mission Statement
The
Youth Ministry’s purpose is to
glorify God by coming along side of parents (the primary
teachers of youth) and helping them train their children
to “set their hope in God” (Ps.78:7) and to take the
next step in their spiritual walk “by knowing Christ”
(Phil. 3:10). When children set their hope in God, God
will be shown to be supreme in their lives… NOT
relationships, peer approval, sports, music, fashion,
materialism, etc.
These goals for the youth ministry are accomplished by
ministering to children and providing youth the
opportunities to minister through several different
facets:
Education,
Edification,
Evangelization, and
Entertainment.

Teen Youth Ministry Program
--
Teen
Sunday School:
9:30 - 10:30 on Sunday Mornings.
As a young person enters the teen program at H. B. C.
there are several goals that our ministry desires to
accomplish within his/her life. One area that we pray
for and work on concerns each individual teens'
spiritual life. Our goal regarding this area of life is
that each young person grows or takes the next step in
their spiritual walk. Therefore, a specific sequence
within a Biblically based curriculum is being used to
challenge the teens in specific areas of life, books of
the Bible, or even methods for further Biblical study.
We encourage all teens to take part in this vital part
of the teen program.

Monthly Activities:
Each month there is at least one activity (sometimes
two) planned for the entire youth group usually on a
Friday evening or Saturday.
These fun-filled activities like miniature golf,
Wimp-o-lympics, Mall
Scavenger Hunt and many others could be held at the
church, somewhere around Flemington, etc. depending on
the activity. Each activity also includes a challenge
from God's Word.
-- Camp:
This year is
the first year that our teens will be attending the fun,
exciting, and most important spiritually challenging
camp ministry at the
Wilds Camp
and Conference Center
of New England. This year, from June 28th - July 3rd,
the teens will be at the wonderful camp ground in
Deering, NH. We are praying and looking forward to
seeing how God will work in the teens lives throughout
that week.
