Empowering teens and families at 53rd Ave to build personal faith, live like Christ, and study Scripture to share God’s truth with our community.
Our mission is to empower teens through a foundation of faith, guided by these five core pillars:
F – Foster a heart of discipleship. We guide teens to develop a faithful, committed attitude toward God in all they do. (Mark 11:22–26)
A – Aspire to Christlike fellowship. We encourage teens to reflect the character of Jesus in their interactions and relationships with their peers. (Matthew 4:4)
I – Investigate the Word and Worship. By diving deep into Scripture and active worship, teens learn the vital importance of honoring God with their lives. (1 Corinthians 6:20)
T – Teach the Great Commission. We equip our youth with the tools to share the Gospel, helping them find their purpose in leading others to Christ. (Matthew 28:16–20)
H – Help through humble service. By reaching out to the community, our teens grow by serving others just as Christ served us. (John 13:1–17)
