High School and Middle School Youth Ministry

Youth Minister: Katie Tang, 274-6520 ext. 318, ktang@olgchurch.org

The goal of the OLG Youth Group is to help our middle school and high school students understand how their faith and talents enrich both their own lives and the lives of all who know them. Our program provides opportunities through youth group meetings, social outings and service programs for our teens to live their faith. Middle school and high school youth group meetings are held monthly throughout the school year and focus on fellowhsip and team building activities. Lock-ins, retreats and social outings (ski trips, Emerald Pointe, Carowinds and Celebration Station) are held for both middle school and high school students. Service programs that run throughout the year include Teen Court and serving dinner to the families at Pathways Shelter. Youth volunteers also assist during many church and community events. Check out the Youth Group News below for upcoming activities and how to sign up!
