SOAR Today
Being the Director of SOAR Youth Ministries is not my job or my position, it truly is my privilege. It is a wonderful thing to witness a young person developing in their love of Jesus Christ while at the same time realizing their tremendous potential.

I want to invite each one of you to join us on this incredible journey. Take a look at our site and call us to see where you can be involved with us in changing young lives.

Our Vision
SOAR Youth Ministries magnifies the inherent potential in urban youth by enabling them to have the highest regard for themselves and others. SOAR creatively connects and bridges the gap between community resources focused on addressing local needs and giving back through faith-based service. As a ministry, it models obedience to God’s good, pleasing and perfect will.

Our Mission
SOAR challenges inner-city youth with the love of Jesus Christ, to serve others and reconcile by
creatively meeting their spiritual, educational and recreational needs.

SPIRITUAL We believe the most important need of these youth is to find hope in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and to learn how to develop this relationship.

EDUCATIONAL We believe inner-city youth need to develop confidence in their ability to learn and to get a chance to enhance their educational skills.

RECREATIONAL We believe that youth need opportunities to channel their creative abilities in various recreational environments.

Our Purpose
The purpose of SOAR is to establish long-term relationships with youth that facilitate spiritual and educational maturity in order to develop future community leaders.
