Youth Ministry


Purpose & Ministry

Wayside Youth Ministry exists to come alongside parents to assist them in the raising of their youth in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. We also want our youth to cultivate long-lasting, spiritual friendships in the Lord through Bible studies, prayer, and activities.


Youth Bible Studies – Girls and guys youth Bible studies meet on the first Wednesday of every month at 6:30pm. They are currently studying the book of Joshua.


Youth Friday Fellowship – Meets on the (mostly) third Friday of every month at 6pm.  With dinner, a devotional, and an activity, these gatherings are designed to foster and cultivate spiritual friendships and support.  Information on each month's fellowship can be found on the "Announcements" page.
