NeXTGen 1st Fridays — Currently on Hold
NeXTGen 1st Fridays is currently on pause as we prayerfully seek the right leader to help bring this space back to life.
​
1st Fridays is designed to be a chill, real, and faith-filled space for teens ages 13–17—a monthly vibe where youth can laugh, learn, and grow together. It’s a place for authentic conversations, real talk about life and faith, and building friendships that go deeper than the surface. And yes—there are always snacks, good vibes, and a whole lot of love.
​
If you have a heart for teens and feel called to help create meaningful, Christ-centered spaces for the next generation, we’d love to hear from you.
