Keep alert; stand firm in your faith; be courageous; be strong.
Let all that you do be done in love. - 1 Corinthians 16:13-14
Welcome to Evangel Youth
Youth are important to us!
The Evangel United Methodist Church Youth Program works hard to love, challenge, and encourage students to grow in their faith. Our youth ministries include sixth grade all the way through high school seniors. Our desire is to stimulate the spiritual growth of our youth through Bible-related, thought-provoking education. Ultimately, we hope to help our students develop a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and find a deeper understanding of God's plan for them. By providing youth with the resources they need to grow in worship, lead spirit-filled daily lives, and give them opportunities to witness and serve others, we help them discover a commitment to Jesus Christ, our community, and ourselves
Sunday School
Junior and Senior High Sunday School is offered on Sunday mornings at 9:30 AM September through May. We cover many topics in the Bible and in life and welcome open discussion.
Confirmation
At Evangel, Confirmation is a two-year class offering a basic and fundamental understanding of the Christian faith. While the objective is to help these young people prepare to confirm for themselves the vows to receive Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior, the class offers many fun and active ways to experience and learn about the Christian faith.
Geared for students entering grades 7 - 9.

Crossfire Youth Group
Crossfire is the vibrant youth community at Evangel Church, dedicated to helping students navigate their faith journey alongside supportive peers and mentors. Our group stays active with Youth Late Nights on select Fridays and engaging small group sessions that foster deep connection and spiritual growth. We are committed to living out "The Jesus Way" through service, whether we are hosting local retreats like "Disciple Now," organizing community charity drives—such as our recent diaper collection for the Good News Children’s Center—or heading out on life-changing summer mission trips to places like Virginia. At Crossfire, we strive to be the hands and feet of Jesus, growing in bold faith while making a tangible impact on the world around us.
