Youth Programs

Youth ministry is a vital part of First Presbyterian Church of Dutch Neck. The fundamental goal of Youth Ministry at First Presbyterian Church of Dutch Neck is to bring our students into an intimate relationship with God. 
 
We pray that students will come to know the passionate love of Christ and will desire to follow Christ’s example of service and ministry.  We believe it is our call to equip teens to share this unique love with all of God’s people.  We desire to prepare our students to be faithful and devoted followers of Christ, leaders of the Church, and advocates of justice and peace in our society and world.  We aim to develop mature disciples of Christ who hunger for the Word of God and who share this Good News not only by their mouths but by their lifestyles, their thoughts, and their faithfulness, so that all whom they encounter may see and know Christ through them.

There are many exciting programs designed just for teens at Dutch Neck.  Sunday mornings, following worship, from 11:00-12:00, there is an exciting Sunday school offering.  This year we have created an entire Sunday School program based on the Simpsons TV show. Did you know that the Simpsons has more prayer in it than any other Television show?  This includes Touched By an Angel and Seventh Heaven.  This is an exciting class that gathers together to watch clips from the Simpsons and then discuss the many religious themes that are embedded in the show.
 

Join us Sunday nights for youth group.  Each Sunday night we come together to eat dinner, play games, worship and share in an interesting devotion.  Our program for kids in sixth through eighth grades from 5-7PM.  High schoolers go from 7-9 PM.  Come and join us all are welcome!

If you have any questions, please feel free to give Youth Minister Travis Overbeck a call at 609.799.0712 ext. 2, or drop him an email at dutchneckyouth@gmail.com.  You can also check us out on Facebook at dutchneckyg.  We hope that you will make Dutch Neck home!
