Youth Pastor

The principal function in the B.Y.G is to design, structure, and lead a program that focuses on building young disciples for Christ. The areas of focus are small groups, gospel preaching, bible study, mission work, Christ-centered worship, events, and evangelism. The environment should consist of a heavy dose of relationship building, with a hearty emphasis on serving. In doing so these combinations will yield young, Godly students empowered with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
