About the Murphy Outback
The purpose of the Murphy Outback Youth Ministries is to reach youth with the salvation message of Jesus Christ. We do this by providing a safe environment before and after school, offering activities for youth to participate in where adults can interact one on one and build lasting relationships, meet physical and mental needs and share the truths of Scripture whenever possible.
