R.E.A.L 120 (Junior & Senior High)

Ever wonder what it actually means to be a Christian? Every have really tough questions about God (and your life) you never thought you could ask someone? Ever want to experience community, play games, and hang out with your friends and some college students and adults in the community who care about you?

On Sunday evenings at 6:30 p.m., September through May., we meet at the main church building at First Pres to hang out, talk about your questions, but more importantly, to live life and experience community together. Students gather together for fellowship, worship, biblical study, and accountability. 

R.E.A.L. 120 stands for: "Radically Experimenting with Authentic Lifestyles for 120 minutes."  The goal is that we can come together, put aside all that is fake, and be real with ourselves, each other, and most importantly, God, about who we are and the struggles that prevent us from becoming who God wants us to be.  As we seek to live this way for 120 minutes, maybe we'll begin to find the courage to live this way daily.

Come hang out with us! Bring your friends! ALL Junior High and Senior High Students are welcome at R.E.A.L. 120.


Young Life Breakfast Club (Senior High)

     This will be the 18th consecutive year that the ministry of Young Life will be serving our high school students.  We meet throughout the school year at Gilbert's on Thursday mornings from 6:45-7:45 a.m.

We serve the students breakfast, and then host a 45-minutes club consisting of crazy games, wacky skits, hilarious videos, lots of singing, silliness and fun. It may be really early in the morning, but we guarantee it's a great start to your Thursday!

The goal of Young Life is to create a comfortable environment where high school students feel cared for and can come hear the gospel message, delivered each week by one of our leaders at the end of each club. 

 

Gilbert's Youth Center

     Located at the corner of Mound and Chillicothe Streets in South Charleston, Gilbert's is a great place to hang out with your friends, grab some food, play pool, ping pong, or foosball. You can also watch T.V. (we've got DirectTV if you want to watch football on the weekends) or play Nintendo Wii!

This summer, Gilbert's will be open EVERY FRIDAY, from 1 p.m.- 4 p.m. Come stop on by! ALL Senior High and Junior High students are welcome. If you're busy on Fridays, and you and some friends still would like to hang out at Gilbert's, call Dave Clem to arrange for a different time (he'd love to escape the office to come hang out with you!).

Special open hours are available.
