L1 Youth Group

A space for teens to find truth, identity, and belonging with a group of believers who also want to know and share the love of Jesus.

About L1

It’s more than just hangouts - times together are intentional moments of connection, growth, and real talk. Middle and high school students meet weekly for teaching, worship, games, and honest conversations about life and faith.

We believe this generation is hungry for truth and purpose, and our leaders are here to walk alongside them as they grow into who God created them to be. Whether they’re brand new to church or have grown up in it, every student is welcome.

AGES: 12-18

FAQs

  • When we meet every other week, it’s all about connection, fun, and growing in faith together. Students can expect:

    • Games & Challenges that break the ice and build real friendships.

    • Snacks & Good Food (because nothing brings people together like eating together!).

    • Hangout Time to laugh, talk, and just be themselves.

    • Teen-Led, Spirit-Led Worship that creates space for real encounters with God.

    • A Real & Relevant Word that calls students higher, encouraging them to live boldly and sold out for Christ in everyday life.

    • Breakout Groups where students can share honestly, ask questions, and grow together in faith.

    • Special Events & Outings like youth retreats, Camp Shiloh, and fun outings that make lasting memories while drawing closer to God.

    At the core of everything we do is this desire: that each student would come to deeply know the love of God the Father, experience the transforming power of His Spirit, and live a life that is authentic, Spirit-led, and fully alive in Christ.

  • The topics we cover throughout the year are always rooted in the Word of God and relevant to what teens are actually walking through today. From identity, friendships and relationships and mental health to purpose, prayer, and navigating culture as a follower of Jesus - we keep the Bible at the center while speaking directly into the real-life experiences of this generation.

  • Absolutely! Students are always encouraged to bring friends who aren’t yet part of the group. We believe youth group should be a place where everyone feels welcome, whether they’ve grown up in church or have never stepped inside one before. Inviting friends is a powerful way to share the love of Jesus, build new friendships, and create a community where more teens can experience God’s presence, discover His truth, and see what life with Christ is all about.
