Nick Suhariev

Youth Leader

I am passionate about helping young people grow in their faith, build meaningful relationships, and discover their God-given purpose. My heart is to see youth develop a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and live out their faith in everyday life.

As a youth leader, I focus on discipleship, community, and serving others. I believe that real growth happens through authentic relationships, God’s Word, and practical service.

You are always welcome to be part of our youth community as we grow together, support one another, and serve with the heart of Christ.
