                          B.A.S.I.C., (7th - 8th grade students)

                          Our Middle School Youth Group is known as BASIC and stands for "Brothers and Sisters In Christ."  BASIC meets once a week on Wednesdays.  We alternate between a time of games, fellowship and Bible study at the Forest Grove Hall.  

                          In addition to our regularly scheduled meetings we also attend regional youth events, go on fall and winter retreats, participate in many other various activities throughout the year as a group, and take a mission trip each summer.  In the past we helped those in need locally in the Heartside neighborhood of Grand Rapids and also served area camps in projects and cleanup.  Our times of retreat and missions not only help us to serve God and the people He loves so much, but also offer a time for reflection and rededication.  Through the grace of God, BASIC provides a safe, fun, and Christ-centered environment for the nourishment of spiritual growth in our 7th and 8th graders.

                          MEETING TIMES:  Wednesdays from 7p.m. until 8 p.m. at the Forest Grove Community Hall during September-March

                          Frontline,  (9th - 12th grade students)

                          Our High School youth group is known as Frontline.  Starting with the Freshman year of High school we become increasingly aware of our duty to stand on the frontlines of the spiritual conflict.  We have been called to be more than conquerors in Christ.  If BASIC is a time of training, then Frontline is a time of battle.  It is our goal that when we graduate Seniors, that they are prepared to go out into the world equipped and ready to defend what and why they believe.  We meet regularly on Sundays in the church's Activity Building and occassionally in small groups that are held at sponsor's homes.

                          In Frontline we deal with some of today's tough topics with a Christ-centered view.  We carefully consider what the Lord has to say about common questions we have. Frontline is a safe, fun, Christ-centered community that focuses on discipleship and outreach. 

                          In addition to our regular meetings on Sundays we also attend area youth events, go on an annual winter retreat, engage in mission trips, and do service projects.  Some of our past mission trip locations have been Maine, Mississippi, Minnesota, and West Virginia.  We are excited to remain involved in missions as we learn more about our own faith and the way God moves in us.

                          MEETING TIMES:  Sunday Nights from 7:10 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. September - March
