For Teens
“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden...
This is OTM’s Bible verse and we believe this is how God sees teenagers. They are the light of the world! You are the light of the world! God created you with such bright passion and lively energy. It’s such an important time in your age. It may not always feel that way though. How can we show this bright light? It is through uniting with our Heavenly Father and living out how He created us to live.
OTM provides numerous ways for you to know God and to use your life for Him.
Check these opportunities out below and get involved today!

Want to study the Bible more? It’s not so easy to understand the Bible on our own. Through having a Bible teacher explain it to you, you can grasp a much deeper meaning. OTM holds Bible study at the core of all we do as Faith comes thorugh hearing the message (Romans 9:10) and it is the truth that sets us free! Join a Bible study at your nearest OTM chapter or wherever you are online!
Life can be stressful, with school and the pressures of life. Sometimes we just need a refresher in our faith. Retreats are a time to put everything aside and focus on the Lord for a few days or even just a few hours through worship, Bible study, fun, and prayer! Most OTM chapters hold monthly retreats for 1-2 days and larger 3-day retreats for Easter, Pentecost, Summer, and Christmas. Get connected and join the next upcoming retreat!
Membership Trainings and Leadership Trainings are offered to OTM members and student leaders who desire to be better equipped to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ to those around them and practically serve the Kingdom of God. These trainings are once a week in their local chapters or can be 1 to 3 weeks at a time.
We are called as believers to spread the Gospel to all peoples and nations. After participating in trainings, OTM members will be offered the opportunity to evangelize locally and online or even participate in short-term mission trips to other cities and countries.
God has given you special talents and skills. Each chapter has different departments to let you use whichever talent God has given you. These departments include Mission, Design, Media, Information Technology, Worship, and Prayer.
OTM members have the opportunities to join 3 week to 3 month internships that provides more practical experiences according to your talent and interests.
