At Tabernacle of Praise, we have an awesome group of teenagers. I think of each of them more as family members than youth group members.
We have been blessed so much during the past few years. One great blessing is our new gymnasium that we use weekly. We play basketball on Tuesdays and volleyball on Thursdays at 7:00 p.m. However, during November, December, January and February our church will be hosting Upward Bound Basketball. This is a basketball program operated by the First Baptist Church in Hurricane, West Virginia. During those months we will only have volleyball on Thursday evenings at 7:00 p.m.
We have our weekly youth Praise and Bible Study in the gymnasium on Wednesday evenings at 7:00 p.m. Our main purpose is to teach others to love and serve Jesus Christ. We also have monthly youth services in the main sanctuary on the third Sunday evening of each month where the youth lead the worship service for the entire congregation.
Our group enjoys hanging out together. We have monthly activities that include hiking trips, camping trips, theme parks, concerts, movies and more. The teenagers also often go out to eat together.
I pray that God is a part of your life and hope that you will come and check us out soon!
Rev. Charley Bowen, Jr. Youth Pastor
