YOUTH

An environment designed with your students in mind

YOU MATTER AND
YOU BELONG

What is MTP Youth?
Youth Group is an environment intentionally designed for students in 5th-12th grade. Our mission is to give students repeated opportunities to receive and share the unfailing love of Jesus where they live, work, and play. We’re here to help students discover a faith of their own through small group relationships, partnering with parents, dynamic teaching, impactful worship, and every teen’s favorite element: FUN!
