Welcome to Garden Youth Ministry (GYM)
where middle and high school students (Grades 6th - 12th) experience authentic growth in their relationship with Jesus Christ! Not only do we hang out and have fun together, but we also take part in meaningful times of worship, hear Biblical teaching on relevant topics, and meet in small groups to process everything we’re learning. In addition to our weekly meetings, we also have many exciting fellowship, service, growth, and outreach events throughout the year.
