Youth

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.

This diverse group generally gathers on Sunday mornings and Wednesday afternoons.

Under the guidance of Jessica & Alvin Casey, Katherine & Noah Starnes, Cynthia Sparks, Lee Hughes and Shannon Blevins.

Thanks for all you do to lead these young folks.

We are persistent!
Your volunteer efforts to help our group park cars for the 2025 Apple Festival were
not only successful, but greatly appreciated. Our group raised over $3000 to
fund our upcoming trips, activities and giving to others.
Thank you!
