YOUTH MINISTRY
We have a vision for youth in New Heritage Church:
- to be trained in God’s ways
- to be equipped for doing God’s works
- to be sent out to serve God’s people.
At this time we are seeking the Father’s direction for the implementation of this vision. In the meantime we are encouraging our young people to attend some of the existing area youth groups.
One such youth group is Teen Vision, a para-church ministry of ours. The vision of this ministry is to disciple teens by:
- identifying their gifts and
- training them up in the use of their gifts.
Teen Vision hosts Bible Studies and prayer meetings for High School and College aged youth. It also holds Bible Studies for Middle School youth, some of which are taught by High Schoolers and College-aged young adults. Retreats and Prayer Watches (evenings of worship and ministry) are also held periodically.
Even without a formal youth group, the ministry conducts an annual youth retreat weekend. This is a powerful time of teaching, ministry and just plain FUN! We also encourage and coordinate attendance at the Acquire The Fire rally. This is an annual event sponsored by Teen Mania, an organization dedicated to help teens live for Christ and reach out to the world.
