Our goal is to make church a none-boring and exciting place for teens to be.
What we try to do is get teenagers involed with the church by making it fun and not boring. We also like to get them
involved with the community by helping them out and holding fun events for them. We want teenagers to get involved and be
a part of something they will enjoy. We have many things that can do. Play music or work the sound board, whatever.
Does this mean they have to join a cult? Not really, actually, not at all. We would advise that you are a believer in
Christ and have a walk with him. If you are not, that is ok. We would love to try and help you understand who Christ is and
show you what he has done. Then we will leave you a choice to join him or reject him. The Bible say, "Who ever calls on the
name of the Lord shall be saved." Jesus say, "I stand at the door of your heart and knock, if you hear my voice and open the
door i will come in and will be with you." When you recieve Christ, he promises that you will live with Him in heaven forever.

When we got started
We started a few years ago, but we weren't to big. We began in a little room with we decided to turn into a our audio/visual
room. We met every Sunday, and still do, and my father (Jerry Gilbert, a.k.a. Mr. Jerry) was the sunday school teacher. Our
worship time started on CD's and words on an overhead.... until i learned how to play the guitar and the songs. We weren't
that big, but we were in need of a youth pastor. We moved to a bigger room, now the teen room, where my brother and
i lead worship with my guitar and his bass... the first youth band. (lol)
We finally got a youth pastor and things began to move a little, slow at first but then the speed picked up fast. We
talked about making the band bigger and we did. We played every 1st Sunday night of the month in the adult service. We were
really good too. Then we got a stage and moved into the gym and opened up Sept. with our first meeting which was a huge success.
A few months later, in Dec., we really took off. As I've been informed, with the technique we us, we are the fastest youth
group that our youth pastor, Pastor Eric Dobson, has ever been involved with and built. Now we have an awesome service and
for fun we like to boast at the adult band and they boast back... and we play along. We are welly supported by our adults,
and we spent a lot of time to do this. Now our dream has finally come true, and hopfully yours will too.
