We’re building a team to provide a meal once a month on Thursdays for 15 re:generation leaders. This is a great way to serve as a group or individually.
For more information, fill out the form below or text Diane Myers at (717) 729-5176.
Each week, our Video Venue (located in the Multi-Purpose Room) welcomes over 100 guests at 9:45 AM on Sundays—and this continues to grow!
We believe every person who walks through our doors should feel comfortable and ready to hear the Word of God. Our Connections Team plays a vital role in this by helping prepare the environment each week. It’s more than arranging a room; it’s creating a space where people can feel at home and focus on what truly matters.
As we continue to grow and enhance the space, we are building a team of volunteers who will help each week with room setup and hospitality preparation.
Details:
- Set up begins at 8:30 AM on Sunday mornings to prepare for the 9:45 AM service (and also for Christmas Eve and Easter services).
- Volunteers help with light setup, including tables, rugs, and folding chairs.
- Training will be provided (we even have pictures to guide you!), and you’ll also have the bonus of enjoying a relaxed cup of coffee before the service begins.
If you have any questions or would like to be part of this team, please contact Cressa at mrobaina@grandpoint.church.

Purpose
Becoming a youth leader at the Point Youth Ministry is an exhilarating opportunity to ignite passion, foster connections, and make a genuine impact in the lives of young people! Imagine stepping into a vibrant ministry where you can inspire, mentor, and guide the next generation as they navigate the challenges of modern life. As a leader, you’ll lead discussions and create unforgettable experiences that resonate with today’s youth while pointing them to Jesus Christ. Join us at the Point Youth Ministry and be part of a movement that’s transforming lives, one teenager at a time!
Responsibilities
- Youth leaders will focus on building meaningful relationships with the students of Grand Point Church.
- Leaders will assist with weekly small group discussions on Sundays or Wednessdays, depending on the campus, and partner with the youth pastor to foster deeper relationships with Christ.
- Our goal is to have at least two leaders per small group to help guide the discussions.
- Leaders are encouraged to participate in activities such as retreats and other events as life allows. This is at no cost to our leaders.
Qualifications
- New leaders must have a passion for working with students in a group setting and for seeing all our students as followers of Jesus.
- You don’t need to be an expert in teenagers or Christianity, but we’re seeking people who are passionate about students and being an example of a Christ follower.

Onboarding Plan
New leaders are required to meet with the campus youth pastor or director of student ministry to hear why the potential leader feels called to the Point Youth Ministry. New leaders will have the opportunity to observe for three weeks before committing to the youth ministry. During the observation period, potential leaders are paired with one of our seasoned leaders to shadow. This helps to determine if they’re a good fit for the ministry and if we’re a suitable place for the leader to volunteer and commit their time.
