Grow and Thrive

Youth

ABC Youth nurtures a Christlike community for teenagers in grades 6th-12th by creating a safe space for all, cultivating relationships, equipping for a life of faith, and putting faith into action.

Sundays

We come together as a community

We all gather in the Youth Place at 9:30am as a large group to catch up, share announcements, introduce the morning’s focus, and pray together.

Sunday Morning Bible Study

Age groups engage in conversational Bible study relating their lives to faith and the world. Age groups are Middle School, 9th-11th, and Seniors.

Community for Every Age

Sunday Night Live

On Sunday afternoons we meet in the Youth Place from 5pm-7pm for fun, food, fellowship, and faith formation. Middle school and high school students meet separately but at the same time. One group engages in group discussion guided by scripture and focused on the intersection between God’s calling and our response while the other group plays games. After combining for a snack together, the two groups switch.

Wednesdays

We take a midweek break together

Youth Handbells: Youth gather at 5pm to practice special music for worship.

Family Meal: Our church family gathers at 5:30pm in the Fellowship Hall for a shared church-provided meal (registration and payment required in advance). Youth are invited to participate and/or bring their own food.

Youth Hang Out Time and Music & Worship Arts: We gather in the Youth Place at 6pm to simply hang out. Bring a book, homework, game, or just yourself. At 6:30pm, youth are invited to participate in Music & Worship Arts until 7pm.

Other opportunities

ABC Youth exists to make connections with teens. Whether bonding on retreats, serving in our community, participating in regional, national, or international mission trips, attending Unidiversity Youth Camp, or screaming on roller coasters at Carowinds, ABC Youth offers something for everyone.

from Will

Welcome to Ardmore Baptist Church’s Youth Ministry! As the Associate Pastor of Youth and Missions, I know that we’re going to have so much fun together as we grow in our faith and in our relationships with one another. I invite you to join us as we participate in both the fun and the sacred as we figure out who we are and whose we are here at Ardmore Baptist Church. If you have any questions or would like to connect further, I would love to hear from you at wraybon@ardmorebaptist.org.
