Connect Youth (커넥트 청소년부)

Connect Youth

Connect Youth is a student ministry that focuses on the next generation of students from 6th to 12th grades and their families. Our ministry serves and teaches each youth so that each member can experience a full Christian faith and live a gospel-centered life as an individual and as one body in Christ.

Our children are important members of the Connect Church that will continue the kingdom of God.

At the Connect church, we teach what it is like to love God and love our neighbor.

In celebration for Thanksgiving, TCC Youth had a "Friendsgiving Potluck" at the church office tonight. Everyone brought something and shared. All foods were delicious and filling.

Special thanks goes to those parents who stayed and helped serving and etc. Youth ate well, chatted a lot, played their own made-up game and we all had a great time together.

Happy Thanksgiving everybody!!! 🎉🦃
