Students

On the first Sunday of the month we have our 5:8 event from 5-8pm.

Middle School and High School groups meet on Sundays from 6-8pm. 

Both Middle School and High School groups meet on Sundays, 6-8pm.  On the first Sunday of the month we have our 5:8 event from 5-8pm.  This is an extended time with food and games that puts an emphasis on building community and offering a safe space for friends and guests to experience truth in a very approachable manner, generally through testimonies.  We do this to offer an opportunity for students to bring their friends, especially those who have not attended church before, into a more relaxed environment where they can meet everyone without the same depth and intensity that is generally found in our usual Sunday Night Youth Group.

High School consists of 9-12th grade. Middle school consists of 6-8th grade .

Middle School is unique in that we allow 6th graders to join starting in the summer ministry program rather than at the beginning of the school year. This really serves students in making sure this important spiritual transition doesn't get lost in all the transitions they have to make in moving from Elementary to Middle School.

We believe in the importance of teens growing in leadership while simultaneously digging deeper into who God is through His word. One of the ways that we do this is through Catalyst groups.  Middle School students all meet together for Catalyst Groups every second and fourth Friday from 6 -8pm.  High School Catalyst groups are split up between girls and guys and meets every second and fourth Friday from 7:30-9:30pm.  Our Catalyst Groups generally meet at the houses of some of the participants, but the location may vary.  For current locations please contact us here. Catalyst Groups do not meet during the summer months.

Every year both our Middle & High School students participate in a district youth retreat called Lake Champion. This event has been life changing for many people in our church family throughout the years as well. We have seen students’ lives change in significant and dramatic ways in every area of life. For details about Lake Champion or the forms needed to attend please click here.

Rather than 'take the summer' off, we intentionally ratchet up our engagement during the summer time. We do this by shifting our Sunday night focus onto outreach, and providing a camp for our surrounding communities. Students from both Middle & High School spend several weeks together learning to live like Jesus and ministering to their communities. Find out more on our Summer Ministry page.

We have a great team of dedicated youth leaders who serve students and their families in a variety of ways. If you are interested in serving in Youth Ministry, please contact us.

Parents, we believe you are the primary shepherds of your kids’ faith.  Be sure to check out the Milestones below. It's never too late to begin to build these into your family life.
