  • "YOUNG PROFESSIONALS" IS THE TERM WE USE IN THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT TO IDENTIFY OUR MEMBERS THAT HAVE GRADUATED HIGH SCHOOL AND ARE NOT CURRENTLY ATTENDING A COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY, INCLUDING BOTH MEMBERS THAT HAVE GRADUATED FROM A HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTION, AS WELL AS MEMBERS THAT OPTED TO PURSUE ANOTHER PATH THAT DIDN'T INVOLVE ATTENDING COLLEGE. MANY OF OUR COMMUNITIES THROUGHOUT OUR REGION HAVE ACTIVE YOUNG PROFESSIONALS GROUPS. OUR YOUNG PROFESSIONALS GROUPS ARE COMPRISED OF MEMBERS THAT FEEL CALLED TO LIVING OUT THEIR FAITH IN AN ECUMENICAL COMMUNITY THAT ALSO HELPS THEM TO GROW AS DISCIPLES OF JESUS CHRIST. THIS CAN LOOK LIKE PARTICIPATING IN BIBLE STUDIES, SERVING IN THEIR LOCAL COMMUNITY, AND PRIORITIZING FELLOWSHIP WITH EACH OTHER THROUGH THINGS LIKE BOARD GAME NIGHTS, HIKES, OR CO-ED SPORTS LEAGUES.
