About Our Youth Ministry

LGBC Youth Minister - Andy Walters

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?

New 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!

9-Month Mission Trip – November

Here’s our focus for NOVEMBER 2025:

  • Prayer: Keep praying for your Top 10 you wrote down back in August! God’s Word tells us in 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18: Rejoice always, pray constantly, give thanks in everything; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
  • Care: It’s November – the month of Thanksgiving. Invite your friends to count their blessings, especially the greatest blessing of all: Eternal life through salvation in Jesus Christ! We’ll give you have tracts for you to share with your friends at school!
  • Share: Invite your friends to share The Gospel around the world this month through Operation Christmas Child’s Shoebox Ministry! We’ll give you cards to distribute telling your friends how to pack a shoebox!

Our church is again participating in Operations Christmas Child’s Shoebox Ministry!

On Wednesday, November 5th, we’ll leave church after dinner at J.A.M. to go shop at Dollar Tree for things to pack a shoebox. IF POSSIBLE, PLEASE BRING $10 TO HELP OUT WITH SHOPPING!

We’ll have a shoebox packing party on Wednesday, November 12th!

Student-Led Worship Services

Our youth sometimes lead the worship services and they do a great job!  On Youth Sunday the youth lead the worship service, so the old way of doing things is gone and the new way has begun. The music is new and there is a different energy in the room. Come and watch how our Youth worship our Lord!
