Our youth ministry is for teens in grades 7-12. We meet weekly, on Thursday evenings, from 6:30-8:30 PM during the school year.
Over the summer, the youth have special events just for them, Serve at our Super Summer Slam Day Camp for kids, and in 2023 we will be going on a mission trip to assist with Crisis Response!
Check the calendar/events for dates and times!
Trip Dates:
July 29-August 6, 2023
Mission Organization:
EFCA ReachGlobal—Crisis Response
Serving with:
Lake Charles Bible Church
Lake Charles has now been hit directly by two hurricanes, only six weeks apart in 2020, and another storm dropping 16” of rain in 2021. Hurricane Laura’s intense winds did tremendous damage: ripping off roofs and bringing many trees down on homes and businesses. A month and a half later, Hurricane Delta caused more damage still—the rain from Delta causing substantial flooding. Since flooding isn’t covered by homeowners' insurance, many of Lake Charles homes don't have what they need to cover the damage. Then, the storm in May 2021, caused more flooding, damaging the main building at the church, the housing for teams, the Crisis Response offices and tool shed, the parsonage, and many of the homes that were already repaired in the wake of the hurricanes. And just like in Hurricane Delta, this flood damage will not be covered by insurance.
Pray
For the families who have lost their homes to the storms and for many displaced and awaiting word on their houses.
For church leaders to have wisdom in how to lead their churches and communities in response to this tragedy.
For compassionate outreach by local churches to those finding shelter in their facilities.
For wisdom in assessing the damage and for the ReachGlobal Crisis Response in determining next steps.
For our EFBC Youth who will be going to serve this community!
