ABY (American Baptist Youth OR Alliance of Baptists Youth) a group for middle school and high school young women and men

Our youth group occasionally meets for fun activities such as overnight lock-ins, Indians games, swimming, canoeing, assisting with activities for younger children, raking leaves for people in our church,  raising funds for and walking the CROP Walk, and a lot of other things as well.

We have fun together, explore our faith together, and sometimes just chill together. Sometimes ABY is a program, sometimes just laid back conversation, other times we are up and doing things. ABY... is us together. Want to join us?
