College & Young Adults

Identify and relationships

Young adulthood is broader and more diverse than ever before. After high school, there is no single path to 'adulthood'. Entering the workforce, continuing education, remaining at home, starting families, or exploring ministry are just a few options young adults have at their fingertips. While life may look very different, we all (18-35 y.o.) are navigating similar questions. Who am I, what do I believe, where do I belong, and what is God saying to me?

Park Street Brethren Church and young adult pastor Tyler Henry would be honored to journey alongside you. Organized into two main groups, college-aged ministry (approx 18-23 years old) and young adult ministry (approx 23-35), these groups provide guides - not boundaries - to join with others on a similar season of life.

Through relationships and discipleship, we hope to create spaces where community can form as we encourage one another to live life on mission with God.

As a graduate of Ashland University and Ashland Theological Seminary, Tyler has a special heart for college students and young adults as they navigate the opportunities and challenges of this season of life. He leads and equips a dedicated team of men and women who provide gender-specific and coed small groups, one-on-one discipleship, Bible studies, and opportunities to build friendships through social gatherings and shared experiences. Whether you're new to the area, attending school, beginning your career, or simply looking for a Christ-centered community, Tyler would be glad to help you find a place to belong and grow.

College Ministry

College-Age ministry (18-23) has always been at the heart of Park Street. With Ashland University's campus just a block away, the school year brings a steady flow of students through our doors. Being a community church, however, there are plenty of local young people who call Ashland home year round. So, there are always opportunities to get plugged in, find your people and grow in your relationship with Jesus.

For us, this age-group is focused on deep discipleship -- a safe, landing place to ask questions, wrestle and try to figure out where our faith and our life can work together. That kind of work is important, and way easier with people around you. Park Street would love to be your people.

Young Adult Ministry

Park Street is blessed to have a large group of Young Adults (23-35) in our church. They are done with school, living on their own, starting families and new jobs and buying homes and setting down roots, all looking for healthy community. This ministry serves to be a place to help ease the transition into adulthood.

For the first time, your time and schedule are totally up to you. Instead of leaving you on your own, our Young Adult Ministry wants to provide a community for individuals in similar life-stages. We host regular social events, weekly discipleship opportunities, and plenty of informal gatherings to get connected. If you are feeling called to take that next step of investment in your faith, and in the community, we would love for you to join us.
