YOUTH GROUP

We are SNAZZY G.
Sandpoint Nazarene Youth Group

Whoever you are, wherever you're from, you are welcome here.

STUDENTS: If you spend any time around our church at all, you'll quickly learn one thing: we love students. They're smart. They're funny. They're bold. And they're bursting with potential. We truly believe that the junior and high school students in our midst are world changers in the making.
         
That's why student ministry is such a huge part of what we do at our church. We want to guide our students in developing a personal faith in Christ as they step into their specific roles in the story He's writing with their lives. We work hard to create environments that engage students in good conversation about God, encouraging them to ask questions, search out answers, and truly learn to listen to His leading in their lives. And maybe even have a little fun while they're at it! After all, if life in Christ is truly the best life we can live, shouldn't we encourage our students to enjoy living it to the fullest?

We know that the junior and high schools years are a time where students are most in need of kindness and community and someone to walk alongside them as they grow. Our student ministry provides just that, connecting students with one another as well as with leaders who want to support them in their journeys. We  meet twice weekly,  focusing on worship, teaching, and community to encourage students in their faith.

Join us

Our vision is to connect generations in authentic community growing in christ likeness and becoming missional people in a variety of ways
