Paradigm Student Ministries
We believe that God has a genuine desire to work in the lives of our teenagers and to use them in their everyday life experiences. Paradigm Student Ministries has the idea that our youth will be the leaders and the example for others. The name is from the verse in 1Timothy 4:12, “Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, BUT set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.” We teach that Jesus is alive and moving through us, and as we become more like him, we won’t give people the opportunity to look down on us.
We are setting the example for young and old. Through relevant discussions, fun activities, fellowship, intense worship and monthly events, Paradigm is actively striving to help students learn what it means to live a life devoted to Christ in the world today.
We meet on Sunday mornings in the main auditorium and then immediately after worship, we gather on the third floor in the youth room. We welcome all middle and high school students. You are welcome to join us for donuts, as well as teaching and discussion that is specifically designed for you!
