CG Youth

Grades 7–12

Be Known. Follow Jesus. Serve Others.

CG Youth is where students in grades 7–12 discover who they are in Christ and how their lives can make an impact.

Our Vision:

To see a movement in the next generation to find belonging, grow deeper in faith in Jesus, and live out their unique gifting and calling.


“So we cared for you. Because we loved you so much, we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God, but our lives as well.” 1 Thessalonians 2:8

This verse captures the heart of CG Youth: authentic relationships, shared life, and faith that moves beyond Sunday.
