A Centenary Welcome to Erwin's Youth

Known as the friendliest church in town, Centenary welcomes you and your friends to become a part of our growing group of students who learn of God's word and develop relationships through common study and participating in church-sponsored local missions. We offer a recently renovated and furnished  room downstairs reserved for our youth and other young people. All of our Youth/Student activities are under the guidance of Alvin and Jessica Casey.

Scholarship Assistance
Centenary is proud to offer scholarship aid to its students who apply and meet the application criteria.
Centenary youth meeting the eligibility parameters of the scholarship program are welcome to apply
for financial assistance during academic years. Please speak with Jessica C or Marvin R for more info.

Centenary Youth 2024




                                                                                An On-going Fun(d)-Raiser


To support the group's efforts to ease the hardships of area homelessness, all Youth members are encouraged to enjoy a tube of supplied M&Ms and then return the tube filled with quarters. One tube will hold $13 in quarters. Can't go the quarters? Nickels will also fit - whatever you and your friends can contribute will be used to purchase and package comfort-type supplies for homeless distribution.

Additionally, clean plastic grocery bags will be transformed into sleeping mats for folks living in less than ideal conditions. You can help by saving grocery bags from your home shopping and giving them to Centenary for this project. If you crochet or would like to learn, Pastor Linda will be teaching this skill, as Centenary church members will soon crochet the grocery bags into mats for the area homeless.

If you have questions about either project and how you can help, please speak to your group leader.
