A Bit About What We Do

The 411
So you are curious to find out more about the Youth Group here at Potomac Crest Baptist Church. We are excited to share with you who we are and what we are about. To be real simple and honest, we are a bunch of imperfect teenagers and leaders who are hanging out in the hopes that from being together we can help one another look a bit more like Jesus Christ. So naturally the question follows, what do a bunch of imperfect people do when they get together? Glad you asked.

Sundays

Sunday Mornings we have a "typical" Sunday school setup, 2 classes for grades 7 through 12. During that time we study the basics about our relationship with Jesus, the same things that all the other classes study in hopes that when it is over we can go home and grow deeper with the family.

Sunday Nights is a time to dive deeper. We meet with the purpose of finding the depth that is there in our relationship with Jesus. It may look like an Experiencing God study or conversation about what really happens when we pray. Right now this is in its infancy so who knows where it will lead. Hopefully it will look like teenagers who leave looking more like Jesus than when they came.

Wednesdays

Wednesday nights is our group time. It is about 2 hours of fellowship and fun. Typically we hang out and goof off for an hour doing things like playing life size board games, bobbing for snickers, or sitting in a circle, sorta, staring at each other. Then it is time to learn about what Jesus looks like in the life of the modern day teenager. .

Activities

Of course there are the activities. We try and get together two times a month to just hang out. It may mean a girls night, or playing paintball. It might even look like a scavenger hunt, car wash or climbing a mountain. Whatever it is, it's about spending time together.

Potomac Crest Youth Group Covenant

We Covenant Together to live to the best of our ability by the guidelines below, in order that we would grow to look more like Jesus Christ:

Respect

We will be respectful of everyone, regardless of their age; this includes opinions, feelings, and position and to treat others the way that we would desire to be treated.

Language

We will keep our language clean and respectful.

Attitude

We have come to church and will act like we want to be here.

Mercy & Grace

Jesus forgave us, so we will forgive other people.

Affection

We can give each other love, but not too much.

Including

We are all one big family, so we will act like it.

Dress

We will respect and honor God with what we wear.
