Pasadena Covenant Church’s ministry to junior and senior high school students is focused in three areas: spiritual formation, missional formation, and community formation. In other words, we are learning how to love God, how to love each other, and how to share God’s love with the world. We believe this approach to be in sync with the church’s broader vision of "Seeking God, Sharing God."
