Students

Grades 6-12

Midweek Worship
Wednesdays 6:00-7:45

We want to see all Middle School and High School students thriving
in an authentic relationship with God and connected to the local church.
Through worship services, special events, and small groups,
students will grow closer to God, develop great relationships,
and learn how to serve and lead in the church.
We believe that students who are connected to a life-giving church
and develop healthy relationships can follow Jesus for a lifetime,
and they will use their gifts and passions to make an impact on earth.

Small Groups

Get Connected. Go Deeper.

Small Groups give our Students the opportunity to dive deeper into the Word and the message by providing a safe space to learn and to share openly.
We are divided into four Small Groups:

Middle School Boys
Middle School Girls

High School Boys
High School Girls
