Youth Ministry

"Jesus grew in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and others" Luke 2 : 52

Our church youth ministry seeks to help young people grow mentally, physically, and in relationship with God and others. It forms the balanced Christian life.

Youth ministry focuses on grades 6 - 12. And, while young people are involved in the church life as a whole, the program has two components.

Our youth program information is being updated! Please check back soon!

Young Life Ministry

Young Life is a ministry to high school youth and is very active in the Fayetteville-Manlius High School, as well as in many other area communities. First Baptist Church encourages young people to be involved and support the Young Life Ministry. Our church annually supports this ministry as a portion of the First Baptist Church mission program.
