a jesus youth

We’re a family of young people learning to be with Jesus, become like Him, and do what He does. We believe God is moving through people like us in Portland and others all over the world to bring light to the darkness through His loving Spirit.
Everyone is welcome on this journey.

Gather with us

Every week, the teenagers of A Jesus Church gather to grow together and become more like Jesus.
Our gatherings are centered on building friendships, telling the story of God, and encountering his presence every step of the way. We would love to have you join us!


WHO | Middle and High School Students

WHEN | Wednesdays 7-9p

Serve as a Youth Leader

We see a team of leaders who follow Jesus, are grounded in Scripture, and are led by the Spirit. A team defined as a family. A team that enjoys being with each other but whose maturity in Jesus pushes them to make young people a part of their story no matter the cost. We see a team who gathers to pray for our young people. A team who lives as guides that teach, correct, and help our young people see who Jesus is, helping them look like Him both as individuals and members of the body of Christ. And we see a team that is excited to gather together. To serve, seeing leadership as a gift to steward rather than a duty to fulfill.

A Jesus Youth requires the efforts of great leaders, and we are always looking for more. Let us know if you’d like to serve during Wednesday night youth gatherings. All leaders must pass certain prerequisites, including a background check.

If you are interested in joining our Youth Leader Team, please let us know by tapping the Youth Team button.

We are currently in particular need of leaders for Middle and High School boys.
