Each week, Jr. and Sr. High students from all over the seacoast get together for Youth Group at EBC - we welcome you to join us!  No matter who you are, we want Youth Group to be a place you'll feel comfortable hanging out, getting active, making friends, sharing, listening and learning about real life - a relationship with Jesus Christ the Lord.
We are passionate about helping students discover and grow in the Christian faith.  We want you to know God's love and His plans for your life.  Helping you connect your faith into everyday life is a big part of what we are all about.

In an effort to better firm up trip numbers and participation for some of our bigger and more detailed trips, signups will close ONE WEEK PRIOR to the actual event.  In addition, the required forms (permission & medical form) and if possible payment for the trip must be turned in ONE WEEK PRIOR to the event.

Start the school year off with some excitement! From 1-6pm, Sr. High students will compete in a Youth Group version of the Amazing Race! There will be no Jr or Sr High Youth Group on that day.
Details: Students grade 9-12 grade form teams of two and sign up to race. This is a great way to invite a new friend to Youth Group!

Encounter is an annual weekend retreat at Camp Monadnock (a Berea ministry) meant for Jr High and High School students from across New England. Here at EBC we make it a Jr High ONLY trip so our students 6-8th grade get time away to grow in faith and friendships together. The days are FULL of games, indoor and outdoor events, praise worship and study in Gods word.

For more than 20 years, the Sr. High Youth Group at EBC has set out for an experience like no other, one that won’t soon be forgotten, and is in my opinion a foundation in the journey to adulthood! This annual getaway has changed lives.  It’s helped students come to understand personal sexuality, love and relationships from the Creators point of view! We live in a secular world that doesn’t understand or value God’s perspective on life and love.  That’s why we dedicate an annual time away to hear Creator God’s point of view on the subject! Specific themes for Snow Camp are set on a 4-year rotating schedule.  Year 4, (this year’s theme)  is an exhaustive study of the book of Song of Solomon. We study the book from the traditional Jewish perspective; it’s a story of love and lust, a true-to-life story of love under attack. There’s so much to learn from this amazing book!
