About Us
At StrikeZone, our goal is to help teenagers develop a faith to own, a faith to live, and a faith to share. We believe that the Christian walk is all about believing, growing, and telling. Therefore, everything that we do in our ministry is directed at developing all three traits. We focus not only on Wednesday nights but also through small group Bible study times and life-changing routine breakers such as Disciple Now, and SZ Summer Camp And then there are Big Nights where we get together and just have fun! If you are in 6th through 12th grades come and check us out, Wednesdays from 6:00 – 8:00 pm. To Contact Youth Minister Please Email: [email protected]
Next Gen Pastor Gabe Baughman
My name is Gabe Baughman, and I’m currently in my early twenties. I remember my junior year of high school when I first felt God call me into youth ministry. From that moment on, I’ve been chasing that calling with everything in me. Today, I have the honor of serving as the Youth and Children’s Pastor at Allen Street Church, and I truly love what I get to do.
I believe this generation carries a powerful calling—to share the gospel boldly, to pray with faith, to see the sick healed, and to experience the glory and power of God in real ways. My heart is to help students grow in biblical truth while also creating a fun, safe environment where they can build friendships, feel like they belong, and be part of a youth group they’re proud to call home.
My hope and prayer is that every student who walks through our doors knows they are seen, valued, and called by God—and that they leave empowered to live out their faith every day.

Strike Zone Camp
Strike Zone Camp is a powerful and unforgettable week hosted by Allen Street Church, created from a dream that Strike Zone Youth could have a camp of its very own. Our heart has always been to create a place where students can have an absolute blast, experience God in a real and powerful way, build meaningful friendships, and make memories that last a lifetime.
This year, Strike Zone Camp will be held at Camp Palestine. While Camp Palestine provides the beautiful campgrounds, Strike Zone Youth leads and runs the entire camp experience. Camp will take place Monday through Friday, June 15–19, at Camp Palestine, located at 396 SW 730 Rd, Chilhowee, Missouri 64733.
The cost of camp is only $165, which covers a camp shirt, devotion book, all meals, and every game, activity, and experience throughout the week. Students will enjoy late-night games, free-time activities, a water day with slip-n-slides, and a fun, crazy challenge day that students look forward to every year. Each morning will begin with a service called Kick Start, filled with worship, fun challenges, and a short message to prepare students for the day. Every night we will gather for powerful worship and an amazing, Spirit-filled message from our special guest speaker and our Next Gen Pastor, Gabe Baughman.
Strike Zone Camp is open to students entering 6th grade through graduated seniors, and we would love to have your student join us. To sign up, you can register in person at the church and pay with cash or check, or sign up online using a debit or credit card. No matter what, our hope and prayer is that your student will be part of Strike Zone Camp and experience all that God has in store for them.

Unbound YTH Conferences
Unbound is an amazing night you don’t want to miss. This year, Unbound will take place on Wednesday, May 6, from 6:00–8:00 PM at Allen Street Church. On this special Wednesday night, we invite youth groups, churches, and students from Clinton and the surrounding areas to come together for one unforgettable, faith-filled experience. Unbound is packed with fun, energy, and excitement.
The night includes games, prizes, and incredible performances—like lightsaber battles and more—that keep students engaged and having a blast. We also bring powerful worship that feels more like being in the middle of a live concert than a typical service, creating an atmosphere where students can truly encounter God. Along with the fun, Unbound features amazing speakers who share real-life faith testimonies, followed by a powerful message from our Next Gen Pastor, Gabe Baughman.
If you’re looking for an awesome Wednesday night that combines fun, community, and a real move of God, Unbound is the place to be. Unbound is open to students in 6th grade through graduating seniors, and we would love for you to join Strike Zone Youth for this incredible night.

Students can expect high-energy moments like a live rapper, confetti, and an all-out, big group game where prizes can be won throughout the night. Of course, there’s plenty of fun to go around with snacks for everyone, and we also give away a Back to School gift to one lucky student, including a top-tier backpack filled with school supplies and all the essentials—and more.
