DownPour: Identity

"Let us know; let us press on to know the Lord;
his going out is sure as the dawn;
he will come to us as the showers,
as the spring rains that water the earth.” - Hosea 6:3 ESV

DownPour is an ecumenical youth group in the Pottstown area. We exist to see students develop their identities in Christ and help others do the same. DownPour is for kids in 6th through 12th grade and it meets each Wednesday night as well as holding monthly events.

Keeping up with Downpour is easy! In the connect section you can find out how to sign up for our email list or text blasts. You can also check out our facebook group for more info too!

Wednesday Nights

The pulse of DownPour is Wednesday Night Meetings. We meet from 6:30 - 8:00 at Buckman's Inc. 105 Airport Road Pottstown. Each Week we alternate between a Large Group lessons and Small Groups, where we break out in to age based boys & girls groups. Small Group topics are tailored for each group. Each group's leader talks with the group to determine this direction. The large group teaching series changes approximately every 4 weeks. We are currently studying:

Warrior. Liar. Hero. Murderer. King.

Occasionally we have a social week where we only play games and catch up with students and listen to how their lives are going.

Monthly Events

Kids need to have fun, so we work to create a place where students can have fun and be themselves. We hold an annual Costume Party, Scavenger Hunt and Christmas Party. In addition, we also organize other activities such as rock climbing, paint ball and more. Check out the gallery for pictures of some of the events or our facebook group for the most up to date info!
