Westview Presbytarian Church  
Youth Group- Grades 6th-12th

Youth group meets on Sunday nights from 6-8 PM. On each Sunday (from 6-8 pm) we have a fun, wacky, and action packed night for folks in grades 6-12; where all are welcome, and invited. Youth group starts off at 6pm for a few minutes of socializing, eating snacks, and chatting w/ friends. Close to 6:15, we then have group praise, worship, announcements, and prayer time. At 6:40, we split up into respective groups (usually Middle School and High School, or Ladies and Guys). The groups will discuss whatever the topic of discussion is, how it relates to them, how it relates to their culture as a whole, what they might have learned from it, and how they can apply what they’ve learned. Obviously, we as a church tie it to the Bible. Yes, the Bible (I know how daring, how bold). The idea is that we want the youth to realize the Bible is a very impacting book for all generations. Then at 7:10 we’re back together for lots of fun with games. We’ll have some crazy run around – throw a ball- burn up all of that excess energy- type game. Followed by a much calmer game (because by then the youth leaders are exhausted and huffing uncontrollably). Those who want to play the games can, and those who wanna just visit with each other, sure can. And we wrap things up at 8pm.

SMYD

Sunday Mornings we have SMYD (Sunday Morning Youth Discussion) from 11:00 am-12:00 pm. SMYD is composed of a deeper Bible study. Some of the blocks of study have been “The Matrix and the Bible”, “If God Loves Me, Why Can’t I Get My Locker Open”, “Preparing for Youth Sunday”, and “What Revelation is Really All About!”. Again SMYD is split-up between Middle School and High School with topics focused on that specific age group.

Upcoming Studies: Stay tuned.
