UCG YOUTH

The United Church of God is devoted to providing today's youth with relevant educational resources from a biblical perspective, and to promoting programs that help develop strong spiritual and moral character in the next generation of leaders.

Families and PreteensFAMILIES and PRETEENS
Families with younger children are the future of the Church. Early childhood is a time when the earliest concepts and ideas about God, His way of life, and His Word are beginning to be understood. United is dedicated to providing resource information for parents, educational material for children, and family opportunities and events that can "make a difference" in life!

This Week: Help Your Child Refute Evolution

TeensTEENS
The teen years offer the greatest challenge in the life of a young person.  It is a time when maturity and values begin to develop and shape the life of the young person. We are dedicated to providing information, encouragement, and opportunities that can make a difference in the life of teens who are striving to implement God's way in their lives.

Young AdultsYOUNG ADULTS
From the young adults will come the future servants and leadership in the Church. From age 18 to 30 is a key time when life-directing, character-building habits are formed. We are committed to encouraging and facilitating the growth and development of the young adults by providing educational resources and opportunities that can make a difference for those wanting to see God’s way working in their lives!
