Youth Ministry
About Our Youth Ministry
Andy and Kristy Walters – Student Minister
The youth ministry of Lynn Garden Baptist Church exists to partner with parents in teaching and showing students how to live a godly life. We accomplish this by coming together weekly to study God’s Word, traveling to various events, providing outreach activities at the church, and engaging the students themselves in service.
Being part of a good youth group is one of the most satisfying and enjoyable things for a young person to do! And it all happens within a safe and positive environment where students can benefit from peer and mentor relationships, biblical teaching, and people who genuinely care about their lives. What better place for teens to spend their time?
Text Messaging System
We are using Gloo as our text messaging system for announcements, daily Bible verses, etc.! Please make sure you are receiving text messages, and let Andy know if you need to be added!

Upcoming Events
9-Month Mission Trip – December
Here’s our focus for DECEMBER 2025:
- Prayer: Pray that your friends will remember the reason we celebrate Jesus: The Savior — yes, the Messiah, the Lord — has been born today in Bethlehem, the city of David! (Luke 2:11)
- Care: Christmas can be a difficult time for friends who are hurting, who have lost loved ones, or whose families may be going through a difficult season. Think of ways you can help! And ask Andy if you need help helping them!
- Share: Share that Jesus is the greatest present anyone can receive! We’ll equip you with some cards to distribute!
