Youth
The First Baptist Church of Elon youth are dedicated to individual spiritual growth in Christ as a group united through learning, missions, and fun. Our youth ministry provides teenagers in our community the opportunity to grow into the men and women God is calling them to be through opportunities of fellowship, worship, discipleship, and service. Parents and youth are invited to work together to organize various aspects of the overall youth ministry, providing invaluable leadership training. Rev. David Durham and a committed group of volunteers provide excellent leadership and great role models for our young men and women to learn from.
