Youth
About
We are a family, where all are welcomed and celebrated regardless of background, belief or behaviour. We want our young people to know a deep-rooted security in Jesus, built upon God’s love for them. As they discover how much He values them, they’ll have the confidence to take risks, dare to dream and make huge leaps of faith. This exciting and scary adventure is not to be done alone – This is the body of Christ, living it out together!
What’s On?
Weekend Away 2026
Friday 20th March – Sunday 22nd March 2026
It’s that time again folks.. Central Youth are going on holiday!!
We’ve got an amazing Weekend Away planned for 20-22th March 2026! We’ve got a huge house all to ourselves for a brilliant weekend full of fun, good food and great teaching.
We’re hoping at the Gowanbank centre this year, youth will have such a great opportunity to connect with each other and discover more of Jesus during their time away!
We’re heading to a new house in Ayrshire with on-suite rooms, plenty of space and the views – nae too bad! We’ve seen our community grow so close and have experienced God moving in many ways over the years at these weekends, and we know that this year will be no different.
Spaces are limited so grab your tickets now to avoid disappointment!
Fridays
Every Friday we meet together. Here’s what we get up to:
Tribes!
Every fortnight 7:30-9PM, we have small groups (called Tribes) meeting together on Fridays at Central Hall. These are open and welcome spaces to invite friends and to begin to ask the big questions of faith, by looking at God’s word together. Tribes are places where we develop strong, long-lasting friendships and grow in our faith together.
Hangouts!
Our social nights (called Hangouts) are about relationship, fun and invitation! These take place every other week on Fridays 7:30-9PM, and include games nights, creative nights, and off-site trips to Bowling, Crazy Golf, and many other places. Here, we meet together to deepen relationships, have fun and build community.
Sunday Mornings
During Sunday morning gatherings, we meet together, play games and look at God’s word. A great place to hang out while the parents engage with Church in the main space!
Mentoring
Youth are mentored in one to one or group settings to encourage, equip and support them in their walk with God. We believe you don’t have to wait to be an adult before you get to take part in furthering God’s Kingdom, so we love to release our young people to lead out on what God has given them a heart for.
