GFPC Youth Whether skiing the slopes in North Carolina, rafting the Ocoee, camping along the banks of the Hiawassee, or hiking Lake Guntersville's scenic trails, Mary Lou leads church youth of all ages through adventuresome experiences together. Her campfire cooking and outgoing personality make her an exciting and dynamic Youth Minister for our church and its children of all ages.
GFPC youth enjoy summers sure to include VBS, movies, boat house fun, and Camp Maranatha. Back to school activities are usually centered around the church fellowship hall, movie nights together, and Hallelujah Harvest. Santa never forgets to make a special stop to announce our littlest youth all made his "nice" list during our "Hanging of the Greens," and our award-winning float is a highlight of the city Christmas Parade. In the spring, the church Easter egg hunt unites young and old at a time when Spring Break sends us scattering on vacations and relaxing trips out of town. When all can exclaim that "school's out for summer," plans have been well underway for yet another awesome VBS!
What does all of this camaraderie and fun spell out for our youth? They are brothers and sisters in Christ who are cherished by a close-knit church whose members raise them in faith. When each little one reaches for a hand, an older youth or adult is there to guide him or her on her way!
Contact Mary Lou if you would like to assist with the education of our youth, present the children's message at our 11 a.m. worship service, lead youth activities, share a talent, cook a meal, volunteer your time, host a youth get-together, or simply be there to "hang out" with our children.
