Proverbs 16:6 Malachi 2:6 Acts 20:24
Youth
Youth are bold, driven, energetic, creative and full of potential. Our youth are looking to be influenced and we are here to help them discover how to use their God given attributes to impact the world, for Christ.
Ecclesiastes 12:1 1Samuel 16-17 Psalm 71:15-18 1 Timothy

Program History:
The Vine was founded in 2012 and incorporated with the State of Colorado. We launched our first program in April of 2013. We are recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) exempt organization.
Events:
Our main programs include Friday Fun nights, one to two times per month during the school year. These events are organized and planned by our youth leadership team and range from nerf war nights, to sports nights, to holiday/seasonally themed events. We also hold weekly Bible studies for junior high and high school students year round. During the summer, we do park days, hikes, marshmallow roasts and other events where we can get out and enjoy the beautiful weather. Long term, our goal is to have a place Monday-Saturday for students to come after school to do homework, have Bible studies, and just enjoy fellowship in a safe and fun environment.
