Parents' Page
This page is a resource for parents of our youth ministry students. Here you will find all information for upcoming events as well as any documents you may need. This page also contains helpful links about parenting and youth culture. It is our goal to assist you the parent in the spiritual formation of your child. We are hoping this page can help keep open the communication lines between the youth staff and you the parent. The content of this page will be constantly changing and updated, so check back frequently. If there is anything you have questions about please let me know. -Jared
