MERCY YOUTH
MERCY YOUTH
IDENTITY. PURPOSE. BELONGING.
At Mercy Youth, our mission is to disciple the next generation into a passionate relationship with Jesus. We do this by creating a space where youth find identity, purpose, and belonging through Christ-centered relationships, worship, and teaching.
If your teen has never been to church before, or if you’re simply trying to find a place they can grow, we would love to meet you.
WHAT’S HAPPENING
WEEKLY RHYTHM | SUNDAY NIGHTS
6:30–8:00PM | Mercy Road Church
This is the heartbeat of Mercy Youth. Every Sunday night, teens gather for high-energy worship, age-relevant teaching, and honest conversations in small groups. This is the best starting point for any new youth.
– Middle School and High School combined worship
– Breakouts (typically by grade and gender) for small groups
– Consistent leaders who know and disciple your teen
-Fun games and hangout space to help youth connect
YEAR-ROUND EVENTS
Mercy Youth hosts several special events throughout the year ranging in variety from late nights to off site retreats that create unforgettable experiences where youth encounter God and build community.
SUMMER TRIPS
Each summer, we offer unique opportunities for middle and high school students to grow in faith and community through camps, mission trips, or leadership intensives. These are often the most transformative moments in a youth’s spiritual journey.
OUR APPROACH
We’re not raising the church of tomorrow, we’re discipling the church of today. Every teenager is on a spiritual journey, and we’re here to walk alongside them as they discover who they are in Christ, build deep friendships, and live out their faith with boldness.
Our youth ministry strategy aligns with our Next-Gen framework:
- Pursue Jesus – Anchor identity in Christ
- Grow Together – Build gospel-centered relationships
- Change the World – Serve boldly and share your faith
Our environments are designed to help teens:
- Ask real questions about faith and life
- Experience the love of Jesus
- Discover their God-given purpose
- Be equipped to follow Jesus for the long haul
ACCESSIBILITY & INCLUSION
Every youth deserves a place to belong. If your child has additional needs, we will work with your family to create a meaningful and supported experience.
