Everyone has certain priorities and values. Values don't only determine what we do, but they determine why we do it. In our youth ministry, we never want to get in a rut of doing program after program. Rather, who we are determines what we do. Here are the values that pave the way for us:

• Missions
• Relationships
• Food
• Fun and laughter
  
• Music
• Scripture
• Welcoming outsiders
  
• Focus on being rather than doing
• Small groups
• Life transformation
• Transparency and authenticity
• Taking risks
  
• Dreams without boundaries
• Prayer
• Personal invovlement in worship
• Evangelism
• Support for parents
• Spiritual growth
  
• The individuality of students
  
• Creating a safe environment
• Teaching by modeling and setting an example
• Student leadership
• Excellence in all we do
