Young Adult Program Area

St. Paul encourages young pastor, Timothy, “Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity” (1 Timothy 4:12).  The young adults in our congregations, those who have just graduated high school to those starting careers and families, are vital partners in the ministry.
