Adolescence is myth. Paul exhorts his young disciple Timothy to press against the skepticism of his older peers by exemplifying the transformative power of Jesus. At Vintage Youth, we gather as a community of young believers who refuse to settle for the standards of culture. We gather to see the Kingdom of God made manifest on earth, experience His glory in worship, discover His truth in the Scriptures, and build one another up in community.

MEET THE VINTAGE TEAM
Emily Poronto grew up in Michigan and moved to Fort Collins at eighteen years old and began attending Vintage City Church in 2015. A few years later, she spent 3 years overseas with Youth With a Mission (YWAM), with a focus on youth ministry, discipleship, and primary healthcare. Her time overseas uncovered her passion to walk alongside young people as they learn more about who they are in Christ and who God is. She is passionate about cultivating a supportive community, providing space for people to discover their giftings, studying the Trinity, and having fun within the Vintage Youth Group.
