Forward Youth is a teen ministry of Canyon Ridge Baptist Church located in Linda Vista, San Diego. We believe teenagers are a vital part of a local church. Teens are not an outcast group that does their own thing, but a group of young people who are ready and willing to serve their church and community. Equipping our teens to impact San Diego and the world with the Gospel is what we strive for!

The teen years are fun, exciting, but also confusing. Our youth staff and volunteers are committed to helping you navigate your teen years with biblical courage and wisdom. Regardless of where you may be on your personal journey of faith, we invite you to experience Jesus Christ on a personal level and see for yourself the difference He will make in your life.

We believe that church should be enjoyed, not endured. Every week, you’ll be able to participate in our weekly Youth Class where you’ll be able to connect with friends, learn practical truths that will help you navigate life, and have a great time while you’re doing it. But it doesn’t stop there—great activities, summer camps, and awesome conferences, are just a few ways you can connect and grow at CRBC.
