Youth Ministry at Shady Grove
Shady Grove’s youth ministries are the primary medium through which our mission and vision statements are expressed with youth, grades 6 through 12 and their
families. Shady Grove’s youth ministry is not a social club or a "youth fellowship.”
While there are events and opportunities offered exclusively to youth, we strive to help
young people to connect with the community of faith in a genuine way. It is not our
goal to have a successful youth group; rather, it is to successfully invite youth to a
relationship with Jesus Christ and to include youth into the body of Christ.
Youth Small Groups
While CROSSFIRE provides youth a wonderful place to begin their connection
with Christ and the community of faith, it is important that youth, like all Christian
disciples, be connected with an on-going small group experience. These groups provide
a more intimate environment in which participants can discuss and wrestle with issues
of faith.
Shady Grove provides a large variety of small group opportunities for youth.:
