Ministry Overview
The Bible begins with the family as the
central social context of human life and a chief means of God’s communication
with human beings. The family has been said to be a “formation center for
human relationships”. And that it is – but it is also a formation center
for spiritual development and a relationship with the triune God of the
Scriptures.
Our mission is to come along aside the
parents of Trinity to assist in equipping our youth to grow in faith toward
Christian maturity (Col 1:28-29). In light of this we offer a variety of
ways a youth can be involved in growing in and serving Christ.
The TPC Youth Ministry consists of
grades 7 through 12.
