The Youth Department is led by First Lady Sarah Rivers. Our musician is Joy Rivers.  The purpose of this department is to engage the youth in both spiritual and constructive activities that are conducive to a Christian lifestyle.   We believe that our young people should honor and remember God in their youth (Ecclesiastes 12:1).   The fellowship of this department includes youth services, fun park outings, bible challenges, etc.
