We are going back to Shuswap Lake this August for our annual Summer Camp! Spend the best week of Summer playing crazy team games, going boating/tubing, spending powerful nights in chapel learning more about Jehovah Jireh with our guest speaker, and so much more. All who are going into Grade 8 in the Fall to the Grad Class of 2026 are invited!

At Grounded YTH (grades 8 - 12) we are all about loving and supporting teenagers! Our vision at JHC is to make Jesus known in every community that God places us, and we live this out by investing in youth as they make steps towards owning their faith! Our main program runs September through to June, with events happening throughout the year including the summer. Here's some more information about our weekly program:

• Grounded YTH Night | Happens Wednesday nights (Sept-June) from 7-9pm in the Youth Centre (JHC's South Entrance). This is where students can experience a safe and welcoming group that strives to make Jesus known and encourages relationship building.
• Grounded YTH Supper | Join us for our free supper every Wednesday we have our Grounded Youth Nights (Sept-June) at 6pm in the lower auditorium (JHC's Main Entrance). For all youth grade 8-12.

We often have time to hangout while enjoying amazing food and playing some games, before heading into a time of music and a message. We then split into smaller groups led by our awesome Youth Leaders, where we learn about Jesus and deepen relationships with one another. Really, this is the best place to know and be known by others while talking through life.

Grounded YTH Supper happens every Wednesday that we have our regular Grounded YTH Nights on (see calendar below). It is a free supper in the Lower Auditorium of JHC served at 6pm. Feel free to come early, we will have tables set up if you want to work on homework, as well as space to relax and hangout, we even put on sporting events on the big screen! We have an amazing team of volunteers who help prep the food some are even able to assist if you have homework needs! Our supper program is for all youth no matter what circumstance you are in! Come enjoy some great food and each other's company.
