We offer plenty of opportunities to pay for retreats, mission trips, and activities by offering fundraisers that put money into Scholarship Accounts.

• Pumpkin Sale, September 26 - October 31 – Each year in October, our Youth Ministry raises money for students by selling pumpkins. Youth and families who work a shift earn scholarship credit. 
• Stock Sales, Month of January - Members of the church can purchase "shares" of our youth mission trips, receiving personalized thank you notes from our youth and an invitation to meet them and hear about their trip at a Shareholder's Dinner in August.
• Silent Auction, March 15 - Our annual Silent Auction and Hire-A-Teen is our largest fundraiser of the year, accounting for half of our overall sales. There are a variety of goods and experiences for sale! 

Want to lead a small group? Think Invite Nights sound fun? Want to chaperone a trip? Youth volunteers must complete a Volunteer Form and email the completed form to Kellie Beadle, Student Ministries Administrative Assistant.
