What is The Collective? It is the youth ministry here consisting of both middle and high school students at CBC. We see ourselves as a group that is seeking to unite itself in one purpose and mission, and that is for Christ.
We see this unity being displayed in the early church, specifically in Acts 4:32-33
"Now the full number of those who believed were of one heart and soul, and no one said that any of the things that belonged to him was his own, but they had everything in common. And with great power the apostles were giving their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace was upon them all."
Part of that purpose and mission that we see is one of pursuing growth in the individual lives of each of our students. While we look to have a great time with lots of fun, our main purpose is the discipleship of your youth.
Our group offers a variety of activities that cater to both middle and high school students, including Bible study sessions, service projects, retreats, social hang time and more. Through our activities, we aim to help young people develop a deeper relationship with God and learn how to live out their faith in their daily lives. We also provide opportunities for youth to serve their community and make a positive impact on the world around them.
We can't wait to see you!

"Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers"
Meet our Youth Director: Chaz Keating
Family: My wife Caitlyn and I have been married for 12 years. We have four children: Finleigh, Clive, Lyla, and Millie. Caitlyn and I are both from Louisiana and met each other while attending Louisiana State University. We have lived in the Springhill/Brooksville area since 2020 and have loved it.
Passion: I have a passion for biblical literacy and theological depth. Beyond that, I value engagement in relationships and we’ll always encourage joining in on the fun. Hobbies: I love fishing and playing sports (especially basketball and ultimate frisbee). I will always route from my hometown teams (Saints and LSU Tigers). And I am pretty open to just having a good time. Life Verse: Romans 1:16-17" For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes… For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.” |
