 Summer Youth Retreat "Refuel!"
One thing we know is that when we are run-ning on empty; physically, emotionally and spiritually, all of us need to refuel. There are always things in our life which are draining us, challenging us and wearing us down. And when you get to that point, you have a choice of what you’re going to do.
Join us as we come together and “REFUEL."
Bring a friend so they can relax and refuel with you! Click here for registration brochure.
 Jr. High Youth Ministry
In the famous story of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego we see the resilient stand of three youth in the midst of severe threats and persecution as they are put into the fire. Does your passion so burn for God that you will stand your ground? Now is the time to get FIRED UP! Come join us at 6:30 pm each Wednesday at The Warehouse for an action-filled night!
 Sr High Youth Ministry-
Many say…”Why should I risk my popularity? I’m saved. I’m on my way to heaven. Give me one good reason why I should give up my free time to serve God”. The Truth is, it’s time to take a stand; we have too much at stake not to be outspoken. We have too much at stake not to be fighting on the Front Line! Come join us Wednesdays at 6:30 pm at Common Grounds Café.
Vision of GCCC Youth-
To raise up a generation set apart, with hearts seeking God, fulfilling their God-created purposes, ready to step into the world

Bill Hostler- Sunday Morning Youth Teacher
 My heart for the youth... the potential that lies within each of these young
men and women is immeasurable. God has a unique destiny and path for each
one of them. As it is with some things in life, this calling is not based on
age. Our youth house the same Holy Spirit that we are supposed to be
carrying. It is my desire to teach them three things. The first is how to hear
God's voice. The scriptures say that His sheep shall know His voice. We can
learn to recognize the voice of our Creator. As we walk through life, we begin
to realize the purposes of God for us. Second is for these young people to
discover the plans of God for their lives. Thirdly, there is an enemy that wants
nothing more than to see us fail. I desire to impart to them the ability to
recognize that we are in a war where their hearts are at stake. I want to see
them live triumphantly. I want them to fight the enemy wherever he may be found. The gates of hell will not prevail.
