We NEED your help Youth Ministries
We need volunteers to assist in the Youth Sunday School - both English and Cantonese, and to assist in the Saturday evening Agape Youth Fellowship meetings. We are not looking for volunteers with clever ideas or great programming skills. We are looking for people who love God deeply and who are willing to hang out with some incredible young people to have fun with them, be a listening ear, and to be a living role model, encouraging them to find their identity and life in Jesus Christ.
To fill out the youth ministry volunteer inquiry form, CLICK HERE
For more information contact Pastor Joao or Pastor Stephen.
