The school doors have closed, but the Good News Youth Center is wide open! We’ve officially kicked off our 2025 summer program, and couldn’t be more excited to welcome kids for the extended daytime hours and to welcome four amazing interns who are bringing the love of Christ, big hearts and fresh energy to the program.

Each day, our Youth Center buzzes with activity — from Bible lessons that help kids grow in faith, to tutoring and mentoring that build confidence and character. Add in nutritious meals, high-energy games, creative projects, and awesome field trips, and you’ve got a recipe for a summer to remember.

This year’s summer fun will include Spirit Week, June 16–20, packed with themed days and fun prizes for the kids. It will wrap up with the Big Day on Friday, a carnival-style celebration full of games and big prizes, all ending with a powerful Gospel presentation. It’s a highlight of the summer and a great chance for kids to share the joy with their friends.

Last summer, 212 individual kids walked through our doors — and this year, we’re ready and set to serve even more! We’re open Monday through Friday, providing a safe, structured, and joy-filled space for kids ages 8–18 to learn, laugh, and experience God’s love. Pray with us for a life-changing summer and stay tuned for the stories that are sure to unfold!
