YOUTH MINISTRIES



ALIF Youth Ministries
“Establishing the Roots for a Lifetime of Discipleship”

What is Alíf?
Alíf is the pronunciation of the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet. A relationship with Christ is an everlasting one and it needs to start with a strong foundation. When a person enters into a relationship with Christ, he/she becomes new (Romans 6:6), like “a leaf” coming forth from a branch. As believers in Jesus Christ, we are called to abide in Him as branches abide in a vine.

Core Values of the Youth Ministry
• Fellowship: a group of believers gathered together to build each other up.
• Worship: to show honor and respect to God.
• Prayer: communication with God.
• Discipleship: a life of following and obeying God.
• Ministry: using one’s gifts to serve others.
• Evangelism: to share the good news of Christ.

Sunday School
• 9:45-10:45am.
• Christian Life Center on the 3rd floor.
• A time of worship, teaching, and sharing.

Wednesday Night Momentum
• Junior Highs meet from 6:30-7:30pm; Senior Highs meet from 8:00-9:00pm.

Small Group Bible Study
• Primarily on Sunday nights at 7:00pm.
