Youth Programs

   Betsy Aho, Director of Christian Education for Youth, has been working with the 6th-12th grade students of Peoples Church for over a decade.  She has a heart for teens, and for helping young people explore their faith through questions, games, discussion, Bible study and mission work.  Betsy feels blessed to have a position she loves at the church that she loves, and is learning from the students all the time.  She lives here in East Lansing with her husband and two elementary age children.

 The Peoples Church Youth Group (PCYG) consists of youth in 6th grade through 12th grade.  This ministry includes group Bible study and devotions, fellowship, church school, trips, retreats, 8th grade Confirmation class and a variety of group in-reach and outreach activities and projects throughout the year.  PCYG allows teens to participate in a variety of activities in a welcoming and fun environment.  The Youth Parlor is designed as a space the youth can call their own, filled with many opportunities to interact with other youth.  It is a place the teens can enjoy and feel safe exploring their Christian faith and relationship with God.
