- Our Youth meet on Sunday Nights throughout the year for what we call "Sunday Night Youth." We begin our night with a time of Food and Fellowship from 5:30pm-6:00pm. At 6:00pm we go over announcements, have a short time of worship, and prayer. Afterwards, we break off into boy's and girl's small groups. We end our night with a group game which starts around 7:00pm and is done by 7:30pm. We also incorporate Guest Speakers, Community Service/Outreach Projects, Game Nights, Fun Outings, and Parties into our Sunday Night (and occasionally other days/nights of the week) schedule.
- Our youth attend retreats at Camp Loucon twice a year, a fall retreat in conjunction with other local Methodist Churches, and the Engage Retreat in the spring. We encourage our 10th-12th grade students to participate in the Madisonville Chrysalis which is a spiritual renewal weekend held semi-annually with weekends in November and March. We join with other area churches to take part in "Be the Church", a semi-annual outreach in Nashville, TN; we participate in both the "winter outreach" in the fall, and the "summer outreach" in the spring. We also participate in more local missions work in Hopkinsville throughout the year particularly focusing on Feeding America and Micah Mission. And every summer we take a bigger trip to attend a Youth Conference Ministries Event called Fun in the Son.
- We'd love for your middle and/or high school student(s) to join us!
