Mechuwana Youth Program

2011 Youth Council
The Mechuwana Youth Council for 2011
The Mechuwana Youth program consists of a series of rallies throughout the school year where kids in Jr. and Sr. high can get together and participate in games, fellowship, a dance, and a worship service led by the Mechuwana band!

Rallies generally start on a Friday afternoon and end on Sunday around noon. Rally forms will be made available to download on this page and also will be mentioned in the Camp News blog during the rally season.

The purpose of the Mechuwana Youth Program is to provide a safe and accepting environment for personal growth. This is achieved through – uniting friends, exchanging ideas, finding unconditional care and support, seeking fellowship with God, and providing an experience which each person can look forward to.

Please join our Facebook Group Page for the Mechuwana Youth Program!

We have a scholarship fund for the youth program.  The program is in honor of Sabrina Glidden Paine, who passed away in July, 2003.  She wanted no youth to be turned away from rallies or camp for financial reasons.  If you would like to contribute to the fund, please send your donation to:
