Kids With Purpose Youth

Kids With Purpose YOUTH exists to be a safe place for teens to create and build friendships, have fun, and be equipped in faith and good works through Bible study, prayer, and acts of service. We seek to accomplish this through regularly meeting together for FOOD – FUN – FAITH every 4th Friday from 6-8pm. We will eat together, have fun together, and dig into the Bible together! We also hope to engage in fun trips, service projects, and other relationship and character-building activities as we are able.
