Hello Friends. Welcome to the ever changing-ever growing site for youth happenings at Newberg Friends! If you are interested in getting involved, whether you are a student, a parent, or an adult that would like to express your gifts and passions through youth ministry, you can email or call me anytime.
There are a variety of ways for you to become a part of our growing community. If you’re just interested in having fun with us, there are monthly events for the simple and unashamed purpose of getting us together and having a good time. If you’re interested in serving the poor, we regularly volunteer with Bridgetown Ministries in Portland, under the Burnside Bridge. We also volunteer locally with Interfaith Volunteer Caregivers and Love Inc. If you’re interested in growing deeper in your relationship with God, we can hook you up with a small group of others that want the same thing, or we can connect you with a loving, good-listening adult who is happy to take you out for coffee and listen to your story. What is it that you want out of a youth group? What is the unique thing about you that you would bring to our group?
I’m excited to see us become a loving, Christ-centered, radically-obedient Community!

YCEW (Youth Challenged to Expand their Worldview) Support:
Sunday, April 27:: Newspaper and Can Drive to benefit YCEW (Rwanda) Team members:
On Sunday, April 27, you can bring your newspapers and cans/bottles to the Friends House (NW corner of College and 3rd) to be received by the four NFC members of the YCEW mission trip to Rwanda. Jessi Hampton, Anna Thomas, Gabrielle Horttor and Drew Miller will then recycle these resources and split the proceeds among themselves. Your generous support of this fundraiser would be extremely helpful to them.
