Fellowship and learning with a focus on faith application is the major purpose for this group. Activities include drama, local service projects, group discussions on everyday issues, high-energy games and exploration of spiritual faith. Social outings are scheduled every couple of months. Caring, supporting and nurturing adults are active participants along side the youth.

Church Camp: Each summer adults and children from Ankeny Christian Church attend camp at our Christian Conference center in Newton Iowa. The week-long event involves games, bible study, creative activities, great food, good worship around the campfire, and the intentional influence of camp counselors. The camp counselors are selected, screened, and trained for this important camp ministry. They find that their ministry is personally rewarding, and both campers and counselors grow in the process.
