Youth International Mission Trip - Bahamas

June 8 - June 14, 2024

We are excited to partner with PRAYING PELICAN MISSIONS for the 2024 Youth Mission Trip! PPM has been serving around the world for over 20 years! Our team of 53 youth and chaperones will be travelling to the Bahamas in June to help serve the people there and help foster a sense of greater community with our church youth and with the Bahamas community!


WHAT WILL WE DO IN THE BAHAMAS?

- Play and interact with children of community

- Learn how to make native meals from residents and deliver to those in need or homebound

- Work on manual labor projects in schools, churches, and homes (framing, home repairs, painting, etc)

Participants will be able to pick which projects they would like to serve! 

They can do all or decide to focus on one project!

Our goal is to fundraise $27,000! 

Fundraising will help to lower the cost for each of our mission trip participants! PRCC will host a Bahama Blast Fundraiser Event on March 3rd at 3 pm that will include a silent auction, live reggae music, and delicious Bahamian Hors d'oeuvres. The event is free to attend!

YOUTH GROUP: BELONG. BUILD.

Every Sunday 11:30 am - 1:00 pm

Purpose:  A Christian community for youth to belong, building supportive and meaningful relationships through social activities, service projects, and discussing relevant topics.

 

Youth Group is our social ministry for middle school and high school youth. We gather weekly on Sundays from 11:30-1:00 with occasional social gatherings and trips beyond the church building. All are always welcome!

YOUTH SUNDAY SCHOOL

Sundays after the 10:00 am Service Children's Message

Purpose: A place to encounter, engage, and respond.


All youth are invited to Sunday School following the Children’s Message during the 10:00am Worship Services. Through the “Re:form” curriculum from Sparkhouse, youth watch a short video and engage in discussion, while enjoying donuts! Youth gather each week with the exception of the first Sunday of the month. On the first Sunday, youth remain in worship to partake in Holy Communion.  

YOUTH LEAD: DISCOVER. UTILIZE.

Meets Monthly

Purpose: Discover individual leadership styles, how to collaborate with others, and utilize gifts through biblical leadership examples, team building activities, and spiritual gifts assessments.

 

Currently, Youth Lead meets monthly and is incorporated into the Youth Group schedule.

CONFIRMATION: ELEVATE. GROW.

Two-Year Program

Purpose: Elevate familiar Christian concepts into personal understanding and develop an ownership and commitment to grow in faith as a member of Park Ridge Community Church.

 

PRCC offers a two-year program for students’ in 7th grade and up to consider doctrine, theology, practical faith, and membership. Interspersed with these foundational studies, guest speakers discuss their personal life experiences, faith traditions, outreach, and service. 

 

Confirmation reminds us of our baptism and God's presence in our lives: we respond by affirming that we belong to Christ and the whole People of God. Currently, the class meets for four intensive sessions throughout the school year.
