Welcome to LIFE, our Middle School/High School Ministry. Our youth ministry motto is built into our name, LIFE, which stands for Living in Faith Every Day.
We hope to teach and model for the youth what faith looks like lived out daily, wherever they are: not just at church, but at school, in their families, and ultimately when they go to college and beyond. God is not only at church: He’s with us all the time.
If you’re interested in LIFE or have any questions, contact our Youth Minister Peter Hwang at peter.hwang@cciccu.org
Teaching God’s Truth
We want to pass down truths from the Bible about who Jesus is, the central message of the Gospel, and the overall story of salvation history. Through Friday night messages, small group discussions, and Sunday school lessons, we want to take those treasures and give them to the next generation.
An Invitation to Live It
A real relationship of trust in God doesn’t stay isolated in the head. We want to help the youth walk with God by giving them opportunities like retreats, missions trips, and service, all guided with youth counselors. We want to support them through struggles, so they can taste the real flavor of the grace God shows us as we take risks to trust him.
Building Up in Love
In the middle of their school years, when so much emphasis is placed on achievement and success, we want to build up the youth, not in skills or excellence, but in love. God loves them for who they are, not for what they can do. Through small groups, friendships, and counselor care, we hope to show the love of God to each of our students.

Dear Youth Parents,
We thank the Lord for His faithfulness and the blessing of our Youth Summer Retreat.
As a new school year begins, please join us in praying for our graduating seniors as they step into a new chapter, and for our students entering 6th and 9th grade as they adjust to new schools. May the Lord guide, protect, and strengthen them, filling each heart with His peace and grace throughout the year.
The August Youth Newsletter is now available. We are also grateful to Sister (Johnny’s mom) for faithfully translating the newsletter into Chinese.
Blessings,
Ya-ling Lee
