Church Youth

 

The Indo-Pak Youth (ages 7-17) meet every other Friday for Bible Study, Prayer, fellowship and games from 7:30-9:30 p.m. at Rev. Singh's home as well as every Sunday during the worship hour. Topics of discussion include Biblical characters, miracles of Christ, social evils, peace and war and cultural issues relavent to Indo-Pak youth among others.

Our young adult group consists of young adults in college and older. They meet one Friday a month. and get together for prayer, discussion and fellowship. Each month we meet at a different member's home. Check out our calendar page which is updated regularly to see where and when the next meeting will be held.

Apart from the usual monthly and bi-monthly meetings, our youth and young adult group plans other activities such as trips to places like Great America, Gameworks and Christmas caroling during Christmas season to name a few. Most Saturdays, you can find the members of our youth group and young adult group playing basketball at the church gym.

Last year the Indo-Pak youth produced a 30 minute movie based on the Gospel story of the Prodigal Son. It was shown at Ravenswood Fellowship as a fund raiser where Indian and Pakistani food was served. They are already in the process of working on another film for this year.

Also this year, our youth plan to take part in the first ever South Asian Youth (S.A.Y.) retreat that will take place July 18-20 at the Cabrini Retreat Center in Des Plaines, IL. S.A.Y. is a United Methodist organization consisting of South Asian youth ages 12-24 from all over the country. Anyone attending the retreat will enjoy various workshops, guest speakers, a talent show, dance party, swimming, games and most importantly a chance to meet, fellowship and worship with South Asian Christian youth from all around the country. If you plan to attend or have any questions about this event feel free to contact us via our contact page or call Ashish at (847) 674-7158.
