PCC Students

Growing together.

Whoever you are, wherever you're from, you are welcome here.

Any 6th - 12th graders are invited to join our weekly Youth Group on Sunday afternoons at 3:30pm. We meet at the church, in our comfortable youth lounge space downstairs. 
Why have your student attend youth ministry at Palos Community Church?
1. It is centered on Jesus!
2. It is a safe, authentic and judgement free community seeking to understand life, and what it means to have an authentic faith.
3. Your teens will build relationships with mature, safe and caring adult leaders.
4. It is a community that is welcoming to all levels of faith.
5. We focus on the God-given strengths of each person as they grow their relationship with Him and serve His kingdom. 
6. It is a lot of FUN and there is FOOOOOD!

Faith

Jesus is at the center of every weekly session, every adventure and every service project. Spending time in fellowship with Christian peers and building relationships with trusted leaders will only serve to strengthen our teens' most important relationship - the one they have with Jesus. 

Fun

Our youth group has great time together, whether they are navigating an escape room, at an overnight youth retreat, or just hanging out in the lounge together!

Service

PCC Students lead and support several service opportunities each year, including an annual mission trip to serve another community. In 2026 they visited a community in Kentucky which has been struck by years of economic hardship, to aid the mission work being done there. PCC Students also host an annual carwash, Palm Sunday Pancake Breakfast, and Thanksgiving Eve dinner to fundraise for their mission work.

In addition to the organized PCC Students service activities, you'll find many members of our youth group just serving on their own on any given Sunday! You can spot them leading worship in the band, volunteering in the nursery, running the sound board from the balcony, and more. Look for them and give thanks for the ways they're fulfilling the PCC mission to "Live like Christ and Love like Christ, so others may Know Christ".
