IOC - "Imitators of Christ"

Hope Community Youth

"Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God." Ephesians 5:1-2

Our Mission

Our mission is to be a place for youth to develop long lasting relationships with one another. A place where youth can work together as one body to make sure each person is cared for, included, and accepted in our “family”. We desire to have fun in a Christ-like manner, representing our parents, our church, and our leadership. Our heart is to be a blessing to our community, to bless the lives of the youth of our generation, and lead many people to know the life-changing love of Jesus Christ. Most of all we desire to be a group where ALL young people come to touch the Savior, and catch the fire of God!

Wednesday Night

We meet every Wednesday from at 7:00 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. for a time of praise and worship followed by a hardcore discipleship program for the 7th - 12th grade students.

Special Events

Each month there are several fun youth events planned. We get together and enjoy the time we share through creative activities and service projects. Whether it's Valley Fair or service the homeless in Minneapolis, these events bring out God's love in us.

Missions Trip

Each summer we venture to a different part of the world to minister the realness of Christ to a lost world. We give youth the chance to experience different cultures and see what it’s like to be out of their comfort zone.
