Embrace Youth
EMBRACE YOUTH
Sundays from 5:00-7:00 PM
Embrace Youth is open to all current 6th - 12th grade students and gathers most Sunday evenings from 5:00-7:00 PM at the Embrace Church building. Check our calendar at the bottom of this page for any special events or changes to our schedule!
We believe that students are not “next up”, but are world changers, leaders, and disciples purposed to live out the call of God on their lives for such a time as this. If you are a middle or high school student, we would love to get to know you and walk with you! We would love for you to join us for one of our Sunday night Embrace Youth gatherings! We also host worship nights, Bible studies, special events, retreats, and more! We believe that Jesus is everything, and have come to deeply know that life with Him is the good life!
“Were not our hearts burning within us?”
— - Luke 24:32
LARGE GROUP GATHERINGS
Our large group gatherings are Jesus centered, worship filled, community driven, peer led, and fun! We deeply value authentic relationships, intentional discipleship, the leadership of the Lord, and having an absolute blast! Embrace Youth gatherings consist of sharing meals, hanging out with friends, playing crazy games, encountering Jesus through passionate worship, hearing relevant teaching, and being sharpened through intentional discipleship in small groups. Our ministry is driven by the Holy Spirit, leaders who are deeply committed to this generation, and by students. Our heart is to equip students to reach other students in their circles of influence.
Large Group - Sunday Night
5:00 - 7:00 pm at Embrace Church
84
84 is a monthly prayer and worship night that we host at the home of a family or leader in our student ministry. One of our core values at Embrace Youth is family. We believe that as a family of believers, it is beneficial for us to meet together outside of a church building, share a meal, and worship Jesus! 84 was birthed out of a simple desire to gather together and enjoy the presence of God. Psalm 84 proclaims, “Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere”.
TRIPS
Multiple times a year, Embrace Youth students go on trips to unplug from the busy routines of life, spend time together, and most of all engage with their Creator. Embrace Youth hosts a winter retreat called Winter Weekend! This is a weekend long retreat that takes place in January. We also attend GENERATE during the summer. GENERATE is a five day camp experience that is absolutely incredible! Some of our sweetest moments, core memories, and powerful testimonies have come from these trips!
EPIC EVENTS
Life with Jesus is the most fun, epic, and fulfilling life. Because of this, we believe we should have fun together! Every so often, Embrace Youth will embark on some epic adventures together such as Laser Tag, Bonfires, Hiking, and so much more.
