What do we offer for Youth?

Monica Park has many programs for youth:

The time together is fun and educational. Offering our youth an avenue to deepen their understanding of scripture, enhancing their relationship with Christ, and discovering that it is possible to be a Christian in today’s society … while having fun and making a difference in our community.
