We’re ONE WEEK AWAY from the kickoff of our 2025 Summit Youth Rally!
This is always an exciting time—it marks the start of summer and launches the full lineup of activities and events for the NHYG. So, here’s a quick preview of what’s ahead!
Summit Youth Rally
This year, we’re building on the foundation of the ROCK—the words of Jesus. We’ll be diving deep into the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5–7) and learning how to build our lives on His truth. This weekend is open to everyone and is a powerful time of worship, praise, and spiritual growth. Don’t miss it!Glow in the Word
Hosted by the Independence Fair Board, this event gives our youth group (5th–12th grade) exclusive early access to fair rides and food! We’ll enjoy a devotional, hear a message from God’s Word, and lift up the youth of our area in prayer. Churches from all around are invited to be part of this night.Wiffle Ball Wednesdays
Scattered throughout the summer, these fun nights are all about casual fellowship. After Wednesday evening Bible class, we’ll head outside for Wiffle Ball. Bring a friend, bring some energy, and let’s have some simple, joyful fun.Uplift at Harding
This is a summer highlight, and this year we have more teens attending than ever before! It’s a week of worship, learning, singing, and fun on the beautiful campus of Harding University in Searcy, AR. It’s a time of powerful spiritual growth and unforgettable memories for our NHYG.Impact Houston
Our 2025 mission trip takes us to downtown Houston, TX, where we’ll help lead a day camp VBS at the Impact Church of Christ. We need your prayers and support to make this trip possible—watch for opportunities to give and get involved!Vacation Bible School: TANGLED
VBS is back and will be wild this year! The theme—TANGLED—takes us into the jungle as we explore how to follow God’s divine plan. It’s a perfect event to invite your friends, neighbors, and classmates. Start spreading the word now!Christ Quest
At the end of summer, we’ll head to Mountain Home Church of Christ for Christ Quest. This event has become a cherished tradition for the NHYG and serves as the perfect bookend to an incredible summer.
These are just a few of the highlights coming your way with the NHYG in 2025. Please keep us in your prayers as we strive to love without hypocrisy (Romans 12:9). Our goal? To be REAL—Real faith. Real life. No filter.
I love this work and ministry with all my heart.
