EPIC: EXTRAORDINARY PEOPLE IN CHRIST
At Prince of Peace, EPIC is all about helping our middle school youth get excited about their faith and sharing it with others. Our goal is to introduce students to Jesus in a way that is exciting and relevant to today’s youth. We help them learn to become Christ-focused by getting involved in our church community while enjoying great activities and developing lasting friendships. They will learn about the importance of being Christ to others through service, as we help develop their understanding that as a child of God, they are fearfully and wonderfully made.
The EPIC adventure takes place during the school year on Wednesday nights at the church. The meetings start at 6pm with dinner followed by fun activities, games, and lessons designed to help our youth grow in their faith.
HIGH SCHOOL YOUTH GROUP
High school marks the transition years where our youth prepare themselves to enter the adult world. It's a time of growth, discovery, and transformation. Whether they are preparing for college or a career, the high school student needs the love and support of other faith-filled friends who understand the unique challenges and opportunities they face. Our High School Youth Group provides the perfect place for teens to find that support.
At Prince of Peace, we recognize the significance of these formative years and the importance of providing a nurturing environment where our high school students can thrive spiritually, socially, and academically. Our High School Youth Program is more than just a place to gather; it's a vibrant community where young minds can explore their faith, find guidance, and build lasting friendships.
