Cedars of Lebanon is our name for our young adult ministry. The cedars of Lebanon in scripture are ones that are sought after. They were special and were used to build the temple of God by Solomon. We know that as young people continue to grow, it is important for them to see how God can use them both now and in the future. They are special to the church and to our Savior.
