The Joint Youth Ministry is for any 6th-12th graders interested in being part of a community of faith. You don't have to be from our churches, know anything about God, look or believe a certain way, have money, dress a certain way, have your life perfectly together or be any degree of cool. We are family of students and leaders learning how to Love God and Love others together and we'd be thrilled if you joined us at any event, anytime.
Thanks for checking out the Joint Youth Ministry! It's hard to capture the "feel" of the JYM with words but there are lots of pictures below that might give you a better idea. We are a comprehensive ministry for 6th-12th graders from all over San Jose. We have students from over 28 schools who participate regularly in a variety of different weekly programs, weekend mission trips and retreats, camps, ski trips, summer outdoor adventures, family events and so much more. In additional to the two full time staff members, Lisa Jacobs and Katrina Kraynick-Baker, we have a ton of volunteer leaders who love to teach, hang out and listen to your students as they figure out how to grow up in a faithful and healthy way in busy Silicon Valley. The best way to see what we are about is to show up! Any 6th-12th graders, regardless of church, belief or faith affiliation are welcome at all our events! Check out our online calendar link to see when and where we meet.
