All Junior High Youth (current 5th graders through current 8th graders) are invited to Camp Eagle in Rocksprings, Texas!
Camp Eagle's mission is to inspire Christ-like change through outdoor adventure, authentic relationships, and Biblical truth. Hiking the hill country, swimming in the Nueces River, flying down the Zip 3k serve as the backdrop for serious Bible study, joyous worship, and relationship building.
The group will leave in 15-passenger vans. All food, including lunch on the road, will be provided. A packing list will be released about a month before our trip.

We are using Teen Text. We look at one of the readings from that Sunday's lectionary and Go Deep, Be Real, Let Go. Plus we look at different media (film, art, literature) that illustrate the reading.
Occasionally Youth Group will meet off campus for a fun activity such as bowling, rock climbing, trampoline parks, etc. Newcomers and friends are always welcome!
