YOUTH TRIBE
YOUTH TRIBE
We are a tribe of young people pursuing God together. Our mission is to awaken young people to their identity in God, disciple them within a transformative community, and equip them to both shape culture and reach their generation for Jesus.

MEET OUR FAMILY PASTOR
WHAT TO EXPECT
Youth Tribe meets Sundays in the Clubhouse (down the blue hallway of the church). Doors open at 5:45 PM for check-in and then we begin at 6:00 PM. We have a time of games when students have fun and build bonds with each other. Next there is corporate worship, prayer, and a Bible-based sermon where students are encouraged and challenged to grow spiritually. Youth are then dismissed to small groups to discuss and unpack the sermon with adult leaders and continue building relationships with their peers. After small groups, youth are dismissed to be picked up at 8:00 PM at the church entrance.

Marquis is passionate about helping young people know Jesus and live life in response to Him.
Born and raised in Bronx, New York, Marquis sensed a desire to serve in ministry as a child attending church with his grandmother. Years later, he sensed that desire was a calling as he attended Gordon College in Massachusetts, during which time he found ministry service as a camp counselor at Grotonwood Camp and Conference Center. He then became Youth Director of Washington Street Baptist Church soon after.
Marquis earned a Bachelor’s in Christian Ministry with a concentration in Youth Ministry and went on to intern at CrossBridge Community Church in San Antonio, Texas. Marquis then took a position as a Youth Pastor at Washington Street Baptist church while leading multiple Awakening youth conferences and summer camp programs as a Ministry Program Developer and Assistant Director.
He and his wife, Analy, currently reside in Concord, North Carolina with their son, Landon, and daughter, Riley Grace. Marquis’ hobbies include spending time with his two kids, listening to podcasts, learning graphic design, and eating his favorite food: chocolate chip cookies.
