zealous for Christ outreach ministry

Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the
believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.

1 Timothy 4:12 (NIV)

Are you a young person between 12 to 22 years old?
Are you seeking to understand your calling and purpose in life?
Do you have any talent or gift that you can use to glorify God?

The Crossroads Christian Center Youth Ministry exists to make a difference through
encouraging one another in honoring God and discovering His will in our lives so we
may effectively share the Word and connect others into His kingdom.

The Crossroads Christian Center Youth ministry is here for you. It exists to be a place
where young people are empowered and equipped with the Word of God in dealing with
various issues in their present generation, exploring together what it means to follow
Jesus in a day-to-day living, encouraging and caring for one another through fellowship,
honoring God through worship, discovering their gifts and talents to be used for the glory
of the Lord, and learning how to effectively share the Gospel to the lost. The ministry
adheres to the fact that the youths can make a difference in the community. They are
not only the future of the church but also the present church with a very important role in
worship and evangelism. There are many ways that the opportunity for them to study the
Word and to offer themselves in service to God. As they are exposed to the love of Jesus
through other youths and adults, they build up their faith and nurture intimacy with their
relationship with him.

There are a variety of activities for them to experience every meeting. In the past year, the
Crossroads Youth Group has focused mainly on evangelism and digging deeper in the Word
through Bible dissections every Friday night However, lately they felt the need to gather together
for more Bible studies and prayer, bringing into being their Wednesday night meetings.Through
this activity, they are challenged to think critically while exploring the Word and its relevance to
their daily lives. Youth rally is also a part of their fellowship with other young people from
other churches. As a result, more of them are now becoming aware of their need to attend every
Friday from 7-9 pm in the church sanctuary. They're now more than 50 in attendance and still
growing! When needed, a ride is provided to those who want to go and join the group.

As a part of their commitment to serving the Lord through their talents, a Praise and worship
Team is formed that leads the divine service in singing every last Sunday of each month.
Some youths use their talents or gifts in areas like music, sound, media, photography and
other visual arts, dance, mime and drama. These youngsters also do "specials" through
songs, worship dances and human video.

Young People’s age range: 12-21 years old
Fellowship Meetings are held every Friday from 7-9 p.m. in the church sanctuary.
