Good Shepherd Youth Ministry
Where seeds are planted and the "grazing" begins

Ministry to young people

You are invited to join in a dynamic group of young adults as we play and pray together.  We meet weekly during the school year for Bible study and "hang-time" at what we call PIPE NIGHT or you could join us at one of our MONTHLY ACTIVITIES.

pipe night - 5:30-7:00pm

The PIPE is our Youth room.  We call it the Pipe because the one distinguishing feature in this room is the water pipe that we have painted rainbow colors.  This is our place for gathering where we have comfy couches, games, music and foosball tables.  We meet here every Sunday during the school year:

The Sundays of each month
FIRST SUNDAY: Sr. Pipe - Grades 9-12
SECOND SUNDAY: Jr. Pipe - Grades 6-8
THIRD SUNDAY: Sr. Pipe - Grades 9-12
FOURTH SUNDAY: Jr. Pipe - Grades 6-8

Monthly activities

The Youth Group gets together every month for a larger activity.  It may be a fun fellowship activity or a helpful stewardship event.  Maybe YOU would like to join us for events like these:

The youth board

All of our Youth Ministry events and activities are planned and publicized by a group of young leaders in our church.  Youth from each grade level have volunteered to be on the Youth Board which meets monthly to decide what they would like to do together as a group.  Then they write newsletter articles for each Pipe Night and Monthly Activity that is chosen.  Adult advisors are also a big part of this monthly meeting providing financial guidance and ideas for chaperones, transportation, etc.

Special ministry groups

We have two ministry teams in our Youth Program that meet periodically to share their faith in unique ways.  If you are interested in sharing your faith and ministering to others, you might like to join one of these groups:

THE GOOD SHEPHERD'S FOOLS CLOWN TROUPE This team has created and presented skits at Good Shepherd during Worship and for other special events.  They have also traveled to other churches to spread the Gospel message. GOOD SHEPHERD PUPPET TEAM Using silly songs and creative movement, puppets can really minister to children and adults.  Our youth group is just beginning to learn about puppetry but we already have a fan club.  You will see us in action at Vacation Bible School this summer.
