Youth Ministry
In our life, God desires to provide us a sure and safe place to stand that is rooted in His love and the promises of His Word. Solid Ground is our youth group of young people 6th-12th Grade, that meet Sundays (during the school year) from 4-6PM. We hope you will choose to come stand tall and firm among us on Sunday nights.
If you have any questions about our Youth Group or how your child can join, please contact our Youth Director Brett Reece at youthdirector@stjohns-abq.org.

Join us on Saturday evening, December 21, for a Winter Ball fundraiser for our youth group. There will be dancing, dinner and other refreshments in the family life center as we celebrate during the holiday season. As stated, since there is food provided and it is a fundraiser, tickets will be required to attend. Tickets will be $22 for one, or $40 for two. Ticket sales will be taking place during the month of November, so please contact our youth director, Brett Reece, at youthdirector@stjohns-abq.org for ticket information. Or speak with any of the students you see on Sundays and they will point you in the right direction. This is a black tie event and we look forward to celebrating the season with everybody!

2024 Youth Mission Trip
Thank you everyone for your support this past year and summer as we went down to Baldwin, Louisiana
to work with UMCOR. We took 16 students along with 9 adults on the eight-day trip in the middle of
July. Everyone worked incredibly hard doing whatever task was needed. The memories our group shared
and the bonds that were created are one of the many reasons mission trips like these are so valuable.
Once again, thank you for all your support and we can’t wait to organize our next trip as we continue to
grow in strength, community, and faith.
