Gayton Student LIFE…

Is the youth ministry of Gayton Baptist Church for students in grades 6-12.

The goal is to lead students to experience LIFE in Jesus Christ through:

Discipleship - in worship, prayer, Bible study

Community - in support, friendship and fun together

Action - in opportunities for leadership, outreach & service

We work toward this goal through weekly gatherings and special events!  Our weekly gatherings include: Sunday morning Youth Brunch Bible Study, Sunday evening LifeNights, and a summer mid-week Bible study.  Special events include outings, seasonal events, retreats, fun community gatherings, and an annual mission trip.

For more information, email Rev. Jennifer Mullins - Youth, Young Adult and Discipleship Pastor - at jennifer@gayton.church.
