Youth Ministries
“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Matthew 28:19-20
Graham Memorial Presbyterian Church Youth Ministries works to help middle school and high school students “Know Christ and Make Christ Known” through fellowship and intentional community-building. We want to equip students to not only be involved in the life of the Church, but to also leave lasting good impressions upon the world, all while following a trail blazed by Christ.
Middle School Youth Group
Tuesdays . Youth Room
5:00 - 6:45pm
The Graham Memorial Presbyterian Church youth ministry mission is to share the good news of Jesus and to teach Coronado youth to follow Christ and share Christian faith with others. Vibrant and growing, our Big-5 youth group offers middle school students an ever-evolving event schedule that keeps pace with the quick-change interests of its members.
Big-5 also offers leadership opportunities to qualified high school juniors and seniors. These junior staff positions require an application and training to prepare the leaders for helping to share the love of Christ with members of Big-5.
Open to youth in the community in middle school grades 6-8, ages 11-14.
High School Youth Group
Tuesdays . Youth Room
7:00 - 8:30pm
“Then he said to them all: ‘If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.’” Luke 9:23 (NIV)
Attempting to follow the words of Luke, Crosswalk harnesses the high energy level of high school students to power growing relationships with Jesus Christ in safe and friendly environments where students feel free to connect with their friends, influence their peers positively, serve the community, and experience the reward of personal ministry.
Open to youth in the community in high school grades 9-12, ages 14-18.
Host Dinner or Snacks
Tuesdays . 4:45pm or 7:00pm
Every Tuesday night, we traditionally start our evenings together with food. For Middle School Youth Group, we sit and have dinner together, and for High School Youth Group, we share some snacks. We haven’t been able to host regular dinners or snacks for the past year and are so excited to bring this “tradition” back again. We would love help with feeding our students!
We ask that hosts for Middle School Youth Group dinner come at 4:45pm to the Parish Hall and provide dinner and a dessert option. We will provide everything else, like plates, utensils, and a great big thank you!
If you are interested in hosting snacks for High School Youth Group, we ask food be brought to the Youth Room at 7:00pm. Snacks can include a variety of things, from clementines to Oreos, gummy worms to apple slices — you name it! It can even be all of the above. The more the merrier!
If you are interested in hosting a meal for our students and would like more information, please contact us at youth@gmpc.org.
