Programs

Youth Book Club

The Youth Book Club is a monthly activity that provides a safe environment where youth are comfortable to share the realities of what is occurring in their life and with their friends through discussing the reading assignment from the current book selection. This program has been established to positively influence youth through biblical principles and academically. In each session, the youth are divided into groups according to their grade level. Each group is lead into discussion by an adult group leader. The Youth Book Club meets on the third Tuesday of each month from 7-8 pm.
