Young Adult Church
In January of 2006, Oyate Concern is starting a Young Adult Home
Church. This meeting is being led by local leaders and is being
established to minister to young adults from ages 17 - 25. Please
be praying for this new group that God is beginning and that God will
provide guidance and clear direction and focus.

Youth Blow Out
This ministry is geared toward children in Kindergarten to
fifth grade. This ministry is our largest group. This meeting
uses music, drama, games, and bible teaching, to teach children about the
love of Christ. At the conclusion of every meeting, the children are
fed a great meal. The objective of this important ministry is to
help children build a solid biblical foundation in Jesus Christ.
This program is also a
discipleship tool for our teens who help run the program, create and
perform in skits, lead music, and teach.

Teen Bible Study
This ministry is geared toward teenagers between the ages of 12 and 18 years old.
This is a group where we encourage leadership in the teens, taking the
teens to conferences, on mission’s trips, and involving them in the Blow
Out program, teaching the younger children. We have developed a Teen
Servant Team for this purpose, taking from the biblical model of
leadership that teaches the greatest leader is the greatest servant. This
team meets weekly for deeper discipleship teaching, bible memory, prayer,
and accountability. Currently there are five teens on the Teen Servant
Team.

Short Term Ministry
We value the ministry that takes place through our short-term ministry teams. We
have seen the effect and growth in short-term ministry team members as a
result of their trip here. Getting to know brothers and sisters in Christ
of other cultures and working alongside them to love others has a
profoundly challenging effect in the lives of those who visit. The lives
of many of the short-term ministry team members have been touched forever
by those met in Oglala. We hope to cast a vision in each member for
his/her potential role in the ministry here and around the world. Through
personal relationship and encouragement, those who have been here can pray
for and continue in relationship as a friend to those they meet here.
