Youth Ministry
FOCUS:
Our primary focus is to build the youth department and get the youth excited and on fire for the Lord! Through the implementation of new programs, youth will participate and play a role in various church activities. Youth are empowered in all areas of the ministry. Greater Freeman not only needs the youth, but their peers need each other to be the light in a dark place. The youth are a vital part of our tomorrow, and it is important that we instill the necessary tools and lessons for the future.
The theme is, “Plugged in, to be Empowered, with No Limits, and No Boundaries” (John 3:34 NLT). In order for us to begin this journey of empowerment, we must make sure that we are plugged into the power source, which is God. Constant communication with the Father will allow us the power to think differently and do things differently. Reading God’s word, obeying his command, and praying, helps us to better understand the One we are serving. So, as God leads, we will be able to hear His voice and follow.
STRUCTURE:
The youth have been divided into three groups according to their age groups. The first group consists of Youth 12 years and under. They have been named “Sunshine Band”. The second group consists of Youth ages 13 years to 17 years old. They have been named “Love Alive”. The final group is College Ministry,
GOALS:
We, the youth and young adult leadership pray to empower our youth to invite other youth, from their schools and neighborhoods, to be a part of this great department! As we continue to learn and grow, we ask that you pray for the youth of Greater Freeman COGIC, as well as the various youth leaders that have been put in place to help mold this generation into what God has called them to be. We have a major, yet rewarding, task at hand, and with the help of the Lord, the leadership of our Pastor and the prayers of the saints, we will accomplish every goal set forth for this department.
