My Story
Having worked with teens for more years than I care to remember, I asked God to place me in a position where I could serve Him, while using the gifts He has provided. He lead me to Highlands Youth for Christ and thence to full time teen ministry at The Door Youth Centre in Alliston. My 3 plus years here have seen some of the most rewarding times of my life
My ministry
We enjoy a very eclectic life here at The Door. Our after school “open door” program encourages youth to drop in for homework help, tutoring or just to share their day. Friday night drop in from 7 to 10 p.m. regularly sees 25 to 35 teens, between 12 and 17 years, building relationships with trained & caring volunteers, while playing pool, ping pong, foosball, basketball, watching movies, or just “hanging out” in a safe non-judgmental environment. Weekly group Bible study is available for all who wish to attend as well as school support, court & probation advocacy, and one to one counseling. Our youth planning committee is responsible for outings, including Wonderland, ball games, car shows, and the building of our float for the annual festival parade |
