Young Adults Ministry

The Young Adult Ministry was formed in 2016 with the intention of integrating our young adults into the wider church by forging a community that would do life together. Even as the ministry seeks to minister to the YAs in PLMC, our objective is also for each YA to be meaningfully engaged in the life of our church, and further the work of God’s kingdom by being channels of God’s power and love and intentionally reach out to bless others around them.

YAs live a life in transition, and encounter many leaps in life stages between the ages of 19 to 35. To this end, the ministry has been helping YAs to find an anchor by building deep roots in the community, and integrating them into cell groups where they can receive care and support. Cell groups also function as a supportive environment where iron sharpens iron, and YAs grow in knowledge of the Word and in Spirit. Our hope is that we also seek to spur each other to impact the wider community by giving of our time, energy and resources even as our community grows in Christlikeness.

The YA Ministry also hosts informative talks covering topics of interest to our young adult community and provides opportunities for YAs to deepen their relationship with God through spiritual practices such as silent retreats. Our yearly YA Retreat is a time of reflection and recreation, and a time for YAs to interact beyond their cell community. The YAs have also reach out through various activities such as the annual Christmas Homecoming.young adults, and bonding activities in smaller groups.

Through the various of seasons of life, the purpose of the YA Ministry is best encapsulated in our vision, “A community of young adults, centered on Christ, connected to the times, impacting the world.”
