Youth Ministries
Youth in our neighborhood are overcoming big challenges to follow Jesus and become leaders in our community. As they do so they are impacting the present and future of Mission Adelante and our city. We love to engage deeply in their lives, walk with them as they become disciples, and help them discover and develop the gifts and passions God has placed within them.
ADELANTE YOUTH CLUB
Adelante Youth Club is a dynamic and fun program that creates a safe place for teens in our community to express themselves, get homework help, and learn about Jesus. Volunteers mentor youth and guide them through difficult life issues. Teens support one another while volunteers walk alongside them, creating strong relationships among them and helping further spiritual growth. Adelante Youth Club meets on Wednesday evenings. The volunteer commitment is high and is focused on life-on-life disciple-making.

Leadership Training Project
Invest in the hungry! That’s the ministry philosophy behind our Leadership Training Project. Each year we select a handful of eager youth to participate in a mentoring and leadership development program that last throughout the school year. The program includes life-skills workshops, enrichment field trips, mentoring, and practical service. Volunteers help in a variety of ways, including mentoring, giving rides to youth, and planning trips. The commitment for this volunteer role is one afternoon per week over the course of a school year and requires some flexibility.

Summer Youth INternship
Each summer we select a handful of youth from Adelante Youth Club to participate in an intensive ministry internship experience. Summer interns are immersed in learning and serving our community over the course of two months, participating in group devotional times, workshops, exposure trips, and retreats, and helping lead programming for kids and youth. Volunteers who want to serve with our Summer Youth Internship may fulfill a variety of responsibilities, from driving, to teaching workshops, leading devotional time, or planning trips. Days and roles for volunteering vary depending on the availability and expertise of the volunteer.
