Sanctuary YTH is a dedicated space where students in grades 6-12 are stirred up in love for God, form meaningful relationships that reflect the heart of Jesus, and are equipped to reach out with God's love to the world around them.

Now, not Next
Sanctuary YTH is a community for students (middle + high school) who want to explore faith, build real friendships, and follow Jesus together. We believe teenagers aren’t the next generation, but the now generation. They’re a generation right now learning to live confidently in Christ.
Gatherings
SUNDAYS | 6-7:30PM | 12 BASSETT ST.
We gather regularly on Sunday night for dedicated time of community, Biblical teaching, fun activities, and small groups. Dinner is provided, and friends are always welcome!
Values
-
We believe every student is deeply known and valued, not as a face in the crowd but as a person made in the image of God. Each student is welcomed as part of our community, where they are seen, cared for, and invited to belong.
-
We value deep spiritual formation in the life of every student. Our leaders are committed to walking closely with students as they learn the way of Jesus, not just through teaching, but through shared life, presence, and example. We believe that even in a culture full of competing voices, students can be shaped into resilient followers of Christ whose lives bear powerful witness to the hope of the gospel.
-
We value empowering students to take ownership of their faith and their role in the church. Rather than doing ministry for students alone, we intentionally do ministry with them, encouraging leadership, creativity, and service as they learn to live out the way of Jesus in their schools, homes, and community.
