Youth
Building relationships that will last a lifetime.
There’s a place for teenagers at Grace For The Nation!
Our mission is to see Middle School and High School students thriving in an authentic relationship with God, and connected to the local church. Our goal is to help take students on a spiritual journey as they follow Christ.
We accomplish this by helping them Know God, Get Connected, Discover Purpose, and Making a Difference. As students take these steps they will grow closer to God, have great relationships, and learn how to serve and lead in the church.
To Know God, students are welcome to attend Sunday Services and RAVE – student-led celebration services held at church on the second Sunday of every month.
To find Freedom, students can attend GFTN Nights in the Spring, Summer, and Fall semesters.
To Discover Purpose, the Growth Track held the first two Sundays at church is open for students to attend, learn and grow.
To Make a Difference, students can join the Dream Team to be a part of something greater.
Parents, thank you for checking out GFTN Youth Ministry.
Our team desires to serve your family by mentoring, leading, and helping your student take important next steps toward Jesus as they walk through their time in Middle School and High School.

GFTN Nights
GFTN Nights provide a connection to authentic discipleship, new friendships, and tons of fun. We believe students will experience all God has to offer when they connect in life-giving relationships. The relationships developed in small groups will be a source of encouragement, prayer, and support for students throughout the week.
GFTN Nights occur every Sunday evening of the month at 6:00 pm during the Spring and Fall semester. During the summer semester, we have House Party groups that meet Sundays. You can check out all of the available groups by clicking below.
Students will experience real relationships, and spiritual growth, and find leaders who genuinely care about them in groups

RAVE NIGHTS
RAVE Nights provide a great reminder that life can be full of fun and excitement with God in the center. RAVE Nights occur on the second Sunday of each month.
Students experience a high-energy worship night, and relevant sermon, and learn the gift of hospitality and serving by owning this student-planned party. Small group leaders and the NextGen staff team chaperon this event with student engagement as the focus.
