The young people in our congregation are far more than spectators. They are active in the Lord's work through devotionals, service projects, Bible camp, and various seminars and gatherings throughout the year. J. J. Hendrix, our Family Involvement Minister, works with their families to help them achieve and maintain godly standards as they grow in the Lord. If you are a parent looking for a congregation where you and your children will find godly fellowship and opportunities to exercise your desire to serve the Lord, you will find it here at Northwest.

Every month our young people gather to spend time encouraging one another, praising God, and studying His Word, in addition to our normally scheduled services.
