Youth Ministry
Here at Northwest Church we believe the youth are the future of the church and we also believe that the youth are part of the church RIGHT NOW. We strive to create a community where all voices are heard, including our teens. With that in mind, the youth program at Northwest endeavors to create a safe, nurturing space where teens can grow in their relationship to God and each other. A space where adolescents can ask the big, tough life questions without fear of being shut down or shut out.
