Opportunities

In the book of Daniel, he and three friends are described by the king as being "ten times better." This is the desire we have for the teenagers of the First Baptist Church Youth Department.

Our pastor, Dr. Jack Schaap, believes that the hope and future of this world lies in the hearts and souls of today's teenagers. Being a teenager, though, does not demand rebellion and confusion. Apostle Paul said in I Timothy 4:12,  "Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity."

The teenagers of the First Baptist Church can and should be examples to those in the community around them. Through Sunday School lessons, preaching, teaching, and activities, they are reminded time and time again that God deserves and expects our best.

The Youth Department provides many opportunities for the teenagers to build relationships with their friends, parents, mentors, and God. There are many activities, clubs, and trips available to the teens.
