Mission Statement:

The Castleview Youth Ministry (Outsiders) exists to intentionally disciple JrHi & SrHi students as they grow in their relationship with God, in their relationship with other believers and as they are used by God to bring non-believers into relationship with Him.

Vision Statement:

  1. Authentic Christian Community: We want to be intentional about providing opportunities for students to connect with each other and the church at large. This includes accountability and encouragement in their personal walk.
  2. Bible Teaching and Application: We are committed to digging deep into the Word of God and allowing the Holy Spirit to teach and help apply the truth to their daily living.
  3. Prayer: We hope to encourage and facilitate the spiritual growth in students by connecting them with their Creator through prayer.
  4. Local and Global Ministry: We want to equip students and provide opportunities for them to further the Kingdom and make disciples locally and around the globe.
