YOUTH
Real Faith. Real Friends. Real Life.
Our Youth Ministry at First Church of the Nazarene exists to help students in grades 6–12 grow in their relationship with Jesus, build lasting friendships, and discover their purpose in Him.
We know the teenage years are full of change, questions, and opportunities. That’s why we create a safe and fun environment where students can be themselves, explore their faith, and learn how to live it out in everyday life.
What to Expect:
- Weekly Youth Gatherings – Games, worship, teaching, and small groups that are relevant, encouraging, and rooted in God’s Word.
- Special Events – Retreats, game nights, service projects, mission trips, and more to build community and grow in faith.
- Discipleship & Mentoring – Caring leaders who walk alongside students, offering support, encouragement, and guidance.
- Opportunities to Lead – Students are encouraged to serve and lead in ways that match their gifts and passions.
Our goal is simple: to see every student come to know Jesus personally, grow in their faith, and make an impact in their world. We’re not just a youth group—we’re a family. And there’s always room for more.
DON’T LET ANYONE LOOK DOWN ON YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE YOUNG, BUT SET AN EXAMPLE FOR THE BELIEVERS IN SPEECH, IN CONDUCT, IN LOVE, IN FAITH AND IN PURITY.
1 Timothy 4:12 (NIV)
Hey there!
I just want to say how excited I am about what God is doing in the lives of our students here at First Church of the Nazarene. Being a teenager in today’s world isn’t easy—but I believe this generation is not just the future of the Church, they’re a vital part of it right now.
I'm passionate about creating a space where students can be themselves, ask honest questions, and discover who God created them to be. My heart is to help them build a faith that’s real—one that lasts beyond Sunday mornings and into everyday life.
Whether your student has grown up in church or is stepping into a youth group for the first time, they’ll find a place here to belong, to be challenged, and to grow. We laugh a lot, we worship hard, and we walk through life together.
If you’re a parent, thank you for trusting us to walk alongside your teen. If you’re a student checking us out—we can’t wait to meet you!
In Christ,
Hunter Zsolzai
Youth Pastor
