VISION
In this new decade of Younger Generation Church, we aspire to overflow Christ Jesus beyond our four walls, blessing our community, transforming our world.
BE JESUS, BE YG
When we cast this vision for @ygchurch, we sensed GOD call us to be more than a Come & See church. Although our first decade was focused on being a “high-energy, contemporary worship service highlighting multimedia, upbeat music, and timely, creative messages – all focused on reaching young adults,” we aspire to also become a Go & Make church, where the “Church” would be brought to life and lived through our lives. YG is compelled to be more than a program, we are called to be a people living out our love for Jesus.
STORIES OF OVERFLOW
There are countless YGers all over the world living out their faith and making an impact for Christ’s Kingdom. Here are just a few of their stories to bless and inspire us all.

Paula & Lizbeth Reyes are a wonderful example of how GOD uses our challenges and difficulties to draw us closer to Him. Even amidst the pandemic, @ygchurch online not only kept us connected to our worshiping community, GOD also worked through our digital presence to touch hearts and mend lives. YG was “Church” in the Reyes home, bringing both Paula and Lizbeth to a decision for baptism while watching worship services online.
