Haymarket Church Youth Group
A place for students in 6-12th grade
Haymarket Church’s youth ministry serves students in grades 6-12. Being a teenager is difficult. Being a faithful teenager in today’s world is even more so. At Haymarket Church we work to provide a safe space for our teens to be themselves while experiencing and learning about God’s great faithfulness. We have outstanding adult leaders and a fabulous group of students. If you are in 6-12th grade or know someone who is, be sure to check Youth Group out!
Our Youth Group meets Sunday nights from September to early June at our Ministry Center (Above Town Hall).
Each week we serve a snack supper provided by parents or church members. This offers our students time to just hang out and eat and our leaders time to visit with them. If you would like to serve a meal on a Sunday evening, please SIGN UP HERE.

Our student leaders have planned an Escape Room party as our end of the year celebration. This will be on Sunday, June 4 in Manassas.

Summer Mission Trip
Each summer we take a week to serve others. This trip helps strengthen our youth group community, teaches valuable skills to our students, and enables students and adult leaders to grow together as we serve together. The Mission Trip is open to students who are in the 6-12th grades during this 2022-2023 school year.
This summer we will travel to Western North Carolina the week of July 16-22, 2023 to do home repairs in Catawba, Lincoln, and Gaston Counties. We will be staying at Camp Dogwood in Sherrils Ford, NC and will be working through the Carolina Cross Connection (CCC) organization.
This year the trip will cost $600/student. A Deposit of $200 will be due by October 16 to secure a place on the mission team. A Second payment of $200 will be due by January 15. The final payment of $200 will be due by March 19.
If you opt to pay in full by Nov. 1, your cost will only be $580/student.
We offer a $100 sibling discount on the additional student cost for those sending multiple children from the same household. We have scholarships available and never want the cost to be a hinderance for any student who wants to attend. If you’d like to discuss a full or partial scholarship, please email Kim at youth@haymarketchurch.org or call 540-840-7459.
Curious about a summer mission trip? Here’s a recap of our 2022 adventure to CCC in North Carolina.
