Youth.
COME ON IN....
I am so glad you checked us out on the internet, but man would I love for you to come visit the UPPER ROOM personally. The Upper Room is the Youth Department at New Banklick Baptist Church, and is located upstairs adjacent from the youth office (Hey it makes sense because the Upper Room is upstairs). Anyways, in the Upper Room we get to be authentic and get real as we address some of the issues teenagers face today and look to God’s Word for direction and guidance. This of course is accompanied with games, hanging out, and all kinds of other crazy events!!!
In the Upper Room we like to do “Something Different” all the time, which means we always have some fun and exciting times ahead. I do hope that you will come check us out and spend some time with some of the best teenagers EVER!!!

A side note from the Student Pastor…
Ever since my wife (Katie) and I came to New Banklick Baptist Church in the summer of 2007, and it truly has been some of the best times in ministry that we have ever experienced. A few years ago, Katie was serving as a summer missionary and just happened to help with the youth group from New Banklick. Since that time, Katie had always told me how amazing the youth were and how she prayed that I/we would have a group just like them. Little did we know, that God had things planned out so that we would be here only a few years later!!!! I must admit God has definitely given me some of the best teenagers in the entire world to work with. The youth truly have a servant’s heart, wonderful attitudes, and continue to challenge me as we grow in Christ together. I absolutely love being a part of the New Banklick and spending time in the UPPER ROOM!!!!
Some of my favorite times we’ve had so far have been: Water/Messy game nights, Fall Retreat, SYATP (See you at the pole) Rally, Connect Conference, Super Bowl party, Disciple Now, and of course summer camp at Cedarmore!!!
I look forward to what God has in store for us in the future and am so excited in following in His ways with all of you!!!
In His Service,
