Welcome to Geneva Youth Ministry
Through events, activities, and discussions, the goal of Geneva’s youth ministry is to provide youth with experiences that will help them learn and develop their understanding of what it means to love and serve God. Our youth group consists of students in grades 6-12 and meets once or twice per month throughout the year for fellowship, learning, and service to the church and/or community.
At Geneva Presbyterian Church, we aim to fully integrate our young people into the life and ministry of the church. We encourage middle- and high-school-aged youth to attend worship with their families. Our young people regularly participate by reading liturgy and Scripture during worship services, singing and playing musical instruments in worship, helping out in the kitchen at fellowship events, pitching in with chores on special all-church work days, working as teaching assistants during children’s worship and special events, and even running sound in the Media Booth on Sunday mornings!
Geneva is a part of a Presbytery of Detroit-wide collaborative youth ministry, drawing youth and their adult leaders from other PCUSA churches across southeastern Michigan, from Rochester Hills to Grosse Ile. Through the Presbyterian Youth Connection, Geneva youth have the chance to meet other people their own age from different communities and congregations.
Geneva Church has a Ministry with Minors Policy for all adults and teens working with children and youth. Parents must also complete an annual Youth Permission Form for youth to participate in activities outside of the church. For applications, forms and other information relating to this policy, please contact the Rev. Rebeka Fergusson-Lutz at pastor@genevachurch.org.
