Mountain City YTH includes all students in 6th-12th grade. Youth Ministry is a great place for students to come and bring their friends who need a safe place to have fun, make positive friends, meet godly adults, and be introduced to Jesus Christ. Mountain City YTH exists to encourage, train, and grow the next generation in their faith with Christ. Our goal is for every student to be known and led into a deeper relationship with God. We always have a fun time, with God as the focal point for everything we do.
