Growing in Faith. Building Friendships. Having Fun.
St. Pauls's Youth Ministry in McAllen, Texas is a welcoming, laid-back community where young people can be themselves, build lasting friendships, and grow in their relationship with Jesus.
We know life can get busy. That’s why we intentionally create a place where youth can slow down, connect with friends and trusted adult leaders, have fun, and enjoy some of the best snacks around!
Throughout the year, youth have opportunities to participate in Bible study, fellowship activities, retreats, service projects, trips, and other special events. These experiences help young people explore their faith, serve others, develop meaningful relationships, and discover how God is at work in their everyday lives.
Most importantly, we want every young person who walks through our doors to know one thing:
You are known. You are valued. You are deeply loved by God.
