Relevance Through Ministry

"Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all." - 2 Corinthians 12:4-6


Young Adult Ministry The Young Adult Ministry is committed to having a deeper relationship with the Lord and motivated to share this knowledge with others.

The Young Adult Ministry are members ages 21 to 33 who love Christ and have a desire to grow closer to Him.

    The ministry provides opportunities for:
  • Spiritual Enrichment
  • Social Interaction
  • Charity
  • Service

Though individually members are at many different places in their lives, they are strengthened by their diversity as they gather together to experience God's presence through friendships, and spiritual and personal growth.

Youth Business Training The Youth Ministry believes that the youth here at Reid Temple have many gifts and talents. It is our desire to share these gifts and talents with the community. When youth are encouraged and supported by others in community, they will become better citizens, serving the common good; and developing the life-long habits of giving and serving in the community.

To fulfill our mission the Business Training Ministry provides tools to train youth in areas that will provide them with opportunities to work/volunteer in the community.

    The ministry will introduce the youth to areas such as:
  • Career Planning
  • Job Interviewing
  • Christian Work Ethics
  • Resume Writing
  • Personal Financial Planning

The ministry also provides part-time job opportunities through the job bank and corporate partnership programs.
