Georgian Triangle Youth Ministry (GTYM)

The GTYM is a partnership of churches and ministries serving our region’s high school students. This partnership currently includes Hope Chapel, Journey Community Church, Christian Reform Church, Clearview Community Church, New Life Church, and Youth Unlimited/YFC. We also have the support of local businesses and community members.

Food goes fast around here. By the end of the 2023 school year, we served around 400 young people lunch on Wednesdays, which equates to over 500 hotdogs.  The other weekdays we host more than 200 students each day who come for the tasty baked goods and beverages. At the beginning of this current school year we are already serving twenty dozen cookies each day and countless drinks such as water, coffee, tea, iced tea, hot chocolate and/or iced coffee. Students can come for the works or just to hangout. Students repeatedly comment that this is one of their favourite times of the day.

Community Service Hours Opportunities

To graduate high school, students need to gain forty volunteer hours of community service. Here at Hope Chapel students are given a variety of opportunities.

There are three main areas where the students get to serve.  One opportunity is during the GTYM lunches where they serve food and drinks to their peers.  Pastor Jane has had students baking cookies for the GTYM lunch program and even preparing meals for the Out of the Cold Shelter. They also have opportunity to help sort donated clothing if food is not their thing.

Overall, students have really connected with what began as a simple gesture of being provided a cookie and a drink, and in turn have begun giving back.
