Welcome to Youth Ministry at Calvary
We have a great community of grade 7-12 students here at Calvary who desire to grow in both knowledge and experience of God and His Word. We have many opportunities to connect with us throughout the year, so take a look at the various ministry opportunities available. 7/8 Youth is the name of our ministry to grade 7 & 8 students, and 9-12 Youth is the name of our ministry to students in grades 9-12. Find the information you might be looking for below!
Gen G Talks: A Podcast Ministry at Calvary
Gen G Talks is a ministry from Calvary Baptist Church Oshawa where weekly student ministries pastor Daniel Scott sits down with a student in the ministry to talk about all things related to God's Word and life as a Christian student in today's world.
Welcome to 7/8 Youth!
Discipleship is at the core of everything we do in 7/8 Youth. As a devoted participant in our ministry you can be assured that there is a plan to take your preteen/teen from where they are to where they need to be as a fully devoted disciple of Christ. Our ministry philosophy is simple: Heart over Hype. We over Me. Give over Get. And our pathway consists of three steps: Believe, Grow, & Build.
We aim to help our Junior Highs mature to a place whereby they are not solely getting caught up in the hype of our programs and events. Exciting age relevant ministry activities & events are important to us but we also invest in Junior Highs to grow them towards attending our ministry activities with a desire for heart transformation to become more like Christ Jesus.
We are deeply thankful to partner with you in your preteen's / teen's spiritual development. Thank you for trusting your preteen / teen to the care of our dedicated and loving workers who have the desire to see them grow in Christ in a warm, safe atmosphere of learning and fun.
7/8 Youth Sunday Mornings
On Sunday mornings our desire is for our high school students to participate in the corporate worship service with their church family. This promotes a sense of belonging to the wider church family as we worship together, and encourages growth as students are challenged to connect with others who are different than them. While we might not have a separate youth service every week, there are still lots of ways we intentionally connect with youth on Sunday mornings.
Connect Sunday
A separate youth service to promote a higher level of connection between students on one Sunday morning each month. We still have worship, teaching, and prayer, but add in some games and food to make each Connect Sunday a highlight of the month!
Sit With Us Sunday
These are Sundays where we sit together in the service as a youth community to worship together, while still worshipping with our whole church family. We’ve got a spot saved for you, so we’ll meet you there!
Dismissal Sundays
On the other Sundays each month, 7/8 Youth are invited to join their families in the service until they are dismissed. When dismissed, we meet in the lobby to go to a separate time together in God's Word.
7/8 Youth Sunday Evenings
We believe the being an active part of a discipleship community is foundational to growth in Christ. Our small groups meet on Sunday evenings at 6pm, and are a great time of spending time together, discussing what we didn’t understand or need to apply from God’s Word in the morning, and praying for each other. To get plugged into a small group, contact Pastor Daniel.
7/8 Youth Tuesday Evenings
Tuesday night for 7/8 Youth is an important night each week to connect with each other, learn God's Word, and grow in our spiritual journey! We have a ton of fun with teaching, games, great theme nights, and more! We meet every Tuesday at the 301 campus from 6:30pm-8pm. Every week holds something exciting, so you won’t want to miss one!
In different seasons many of us lose our way and have lost sight of the way that God has called us to as Christ followers. It is my prayer that if each of us commit to investing in our walk together on Tuesday nights that we will each experience growth in our relationship with Christ.
We do require registration for 7/8 Youth for the year, so register at the links below.

Welcome to 9-12 Youth!
We have a great community of high school students in our church who love the Lord and desire to grow in Him. In 9-12 Youth ministries, we continue our church’s three priorities of worship, connect, and reach in specific ways that engage with our students in the life stage they are in, and that challenge and prepare them to continue in their walk with God when they move on to the next stage of life.
At 9-12 Youth, our expression of these three priorities are:
Gain Hope (Involvement in worship together challenges us to worship in every area of life)
Grow Together (As we grow together in Christ, we’ll grow together in community)
Get Ready (Equipping students with God’s Word to serve Him in His world)
What you’ll see below is the different opportunities we have to connect with us throughout the week. If you're a student in grades 9-12 you are welcome to join us at whichever stage you are at, but should be prepared to be challenged to continue growing in Christ likeness.

We know it can be challenging in our walk with Christ when we feel alone. We want to help with that. If you’re attending a high school in the area, we’ll do our best to get you connected with other students or teachers who love the Lord, as well as any Christian club running at the school to help you in your walk.

MEET OUR STUDENT MINISTRIES PASTOR
Daniel Scott
Student Ministries Pastor
I hold a Bachelor of Information Technology (Ontario Tech University), and Master of Divinity and Graduate Certificate in Biblical Counselling (Heritage Seminary). I am married to my beautiful wife Michelle who is the Ministry Support, Calendar, and Events Coordinator here at the church, and together we have a son, Noah, and a daughter, Anna. I enjoy listening to jazz on vinyl, reading, spending time with Michelle, Noah, and Anna, and a good burger, especially one from Five Guys.
I am passionate about seeing people grow in a genuine, gospel centred relationship with Christ, seeing how the truth in God's Word is extremely impactful for every day life, and Calvary Baptist Church is a church that unapologetically proclaims the truth of the Gospel.
