Youth matter to God…so they matter to us!

 
 

OUR PROGRAMS

YOUTH COAST GROUPS (Yrs 7-12)

FRIDAY Afternoon’s - 5:30-6:45PM

@ VARIOUS LOCATIONS

Coast Groups are the ‘backbone’ of CoastEC. They’re little ‘gospel driven’ pockets of community that meet together during the school term to help each other get to know and follow Jesus. We read the Bible, pray for each other, eat food and encourage each other to keep God as our priority! After Coast Groups, we all come together at the Forster Public School hall for dinner, and then we get into our Riptide program

- Girl’s Coast Group: Yrs 7-8

- Guy’s Coast Group: Yrs 7-10

- Guys & Girl’s Mixed Coast Group: Yrs 9-12 girls + 11-12 boys

 

RIPTIDE (Yrs 7-12)

FRIDAY NIGHTs - 6:45-9:00PM

@ FOrster public school hall (entry on hadley st)

Riptide is open to all high schoolers. It runs during school term and includes dinner, games, hanging out and a Bible talk. The program also includes activities like beach parties, bonfires, BBQs, Amazing race nights and weekends away. Riptide is a great chance to explore the Christian faith, make new friends and to invite other friends along.
