church youth group
Young believers' fellowship
A church youth group is an organization within a religious congregation that brings together teenagers for social activities, religious education, and community service.
These groups typically meet weekly for Bible study, games, and fellowship, often led by a youth pastor or volunteer adults.
The atmosphere tends to be casual and designed to make faith accessible to adolescents: I met my best friends at church youth group.
The term sometimes carries connotations of sheltered suburban Christianity or awkward icebreaker games.
