Youth
Ministry
Hemet
Valley Baptist Church offers activities for Middle School and High
School students ( 7th grade thru 12th) designed to challenge and
encourage growth in their relationship with God.
Activities
include retreats, youth camp, leadership training, mission trips,
and small group Bible study. They have recently formed a video team
that creates videos for reaching out to the youth in our community
as well as to support the ministries of this church. Through these
activities students fellowship, grow in their faith, and celebrate
God's presence in their individual lives. Various theme nights are
planned through out the year.
Our Older Youth department has been vary involved with the mission
field with trips to Mexico to build houses, helping pack shoe boxes
with Samaritian's Purse in Anehiem as well as to the Amazon to build
a church.
