Seniors, this is your moment—and we couldn’t be more proud. Graduation Sunday is all about honoring you—your hard work, your journey, and the incredible ways God has been shaping your life.

We invite you to join us in the Main Sanctuary for Easter this year!

The theme for this year's conference is, “FULLY KNOWN, FULLY LOVED”. Our heart is that every girl would be reminded that she is deeply seen, completely understood, and unconditionally loved by God. Rooted in Psalm 139 and Romans 5:6-11, the day will explore what it means to embrace the truth that God knows us fully—our joys, struggles, and even our mistakes—yet loves us relentlessly. Our goal is to create a space where we can grow in genuine and lasting friendships while growing together in faith. Through breakout sessions, we’ll dive into choosing forgiveness when we’ve been hurt, understanding how releasing others can bring freedom and healing to our hearts. We’ll also explore practical ways to build and maintain spiritual disciplines that keep us anchored in God’s love. Through worship, challenging messages, and meaningful conversations, our hope is that each student leaves feeling fully known, fully loved, and fully empowered to walk in freedom and faith.

We keep it straight forward and let the Bible guide our time together. You’re welcome to join every Wednesday night during the school semesters in the Upper Youth Sanc.

Hello, MP Youth ladies!

We are so excited about this year's MPY Girls Conference, PURSUE—a life-changing conference designed for you with three goals in mind. 

First, we want to help you recognize and embrace the truth that the God who created you pursues you like no other. We want you to leave with a deep sense of His love and purpose for your life. 

Secondly, we believe that by following Jesus's example, we are meant to have and pursue a Holy community that glorifies God. Our heart as a ministry is to provide a space for you to connect with like-minded peers and build meaningful relationships centered on faith. Create new friendships and discover ways to make the friendships you have ones that honor the Lord.

Lastly, we will talk about the personal pursuit of Holiness, equipping you with the tools and knowledge to live a life that reflects God's grace and goodness. 

To pursue anything requires action. Let's walk through this and learn what that looks like together.

REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED, BUT NO WORRIES! You can still register at the door. Come to the youth center at 10Am and we’ll get you registered there!
