Teen-Age ministry

The vision of the sub-ministry

• Not losing our own children while trying to win others for Christ!

• Raising a generation that is fully submitted to Christ!

• Preparing a generation that will inherit and lead the church!

• Passing on the fire of God to the next generation!

• Believing and working towards the goal that our children—the next generation—will be even more committed to the Lord than we are!

The goals of this ministry

1. Ministering to our teenagers by helping those who have not yet decided to follow Jesus Christ to make that decision.

2. Supporting those who have chosen to follow Jesus in growing deeper in the Word of God.

3. Setting our teenagers free from the strongholds formed in their minds by secular schools and society.

4. Exposing the works of darkness, destroying the devil’s influence, and protecting them from these negative forces.

5. Doing our part to assist parents and the church in the moral and spiritual upbringing of our children.

6. Creating opportunities for our teenagers to experience strong, Christ-centered fellowship with one another.

7. Guiding them in their studies and supporting them in making important life decisions.

8. Encouraging them to actively participate in worship and other ministries within the church.

9. Helping each one discover God’s unique plan for their life.

10. Empowering them to be used by God and to make a lasting difference in the world.

Members

The different meetings we have:

1. Sunday morning services 10:00–11:30 AM, with easier refreshments and fellowship time after the service. (At present we have a service for attending teenagers aged 13–15 years and a separate service for those in hish-school (gymnasieum) all over 16 years of age as well as for young adults)

2. Relational group meetings – smaller groups for boys and girls separately typically led by a relational group leader. These smaller group services occor either physically or digitally either each week or twice a month.

3. Retreats – a time where teenagers together with us leaders (the 9 grown up leaders) and other parents travel away for a week-end gathering at a resort. We spend typically 2–3 nights the the teen-agers and youths get more in-depth teaching and attend fellowship building activities and also have time for studies.

4. Other types of events and meetings – example prayer and worship services, gospelevents, special teaching events etc.
