Our Theme Passage:

17 Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. 18 And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. 19 May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God. 20 Now glory be to God!  By his mighty power at work within us, he is able to accomplish infinitely more than we would ever dare to ask or hope.

Ephesians 3:17-20

Under the direction of Dave Falcone, our Pastor of Youth Ministries, experienced adults lead this area of ministry as they seek to build relationships with students..

This ministry is designed to guide 6th -12th grade students through the moral maze of questions that arrive with adolescence, and to build them up in their faith in order for them to develop as mature Christians (while maintaining their identity and sense of conviction).

Who is Dave?!

He has hiked the Belize countryside, jumped out of a plane, and helped those in need from Nicaragua and Florida to Ireland and Jamaica. An ordained minister with a B.A. and M.A. in Youth Ministry and his mission work around the world, Dave is a fearless follower of Christ, which is what makes him such an inspiring Youth Pastor. He is passionately in love with the two women in his life–his wife, Jackie and their daughter, Adelyn. If there’s a will, there’s a way; Dave’s got both…and a wild heart.
