The youth are not the Church of tomorrow but, rather, they are the Church of today!  We want to encourage our youth to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ as the best way to thrive through the teen years and beyond into adulthood.  We encourage our youth to get involved, to become the leaders God is calling them to be.

At Elizabethton Church of the Nazarene, teens come together frequently for:

• Fun and fellowship with each other
• To grow in our Christian faith
• To support each other to be more Christ like disciples in our community

In addition to local activities, we participate in the East Tennessee NYI district events such as:

• Youth camp
• Explosion
• TNT at Trevecca
• NYC
• Bible Quizzing

Teen Bible Quizzing

We compete in the East Tennessee District quiz program.  For the 2025-2026 quiz season, we will be studying the books of 1 & 2 Corinthians.  Practices are Sunday afternoons.  The regular quiz season runs from July to March each year.
