Taking your faith in Christ to the next level.
When it comes down to it, student ministry is about ownership – it’s about taking that next step in one’s faith journey. As the primary faith influence, parents play a vital role in this process. Our job is to come alongside parents and partner with them in impacting a student’s life. We provide environments where students encounter Christ holistically in order to respond more clearly to His leading.
While our programs play an integral part, relationships are what matter most. Authentic faith occurs when every teenager has a place to belong and people who believe in what Christ can do in them. Hence, leading small becomes the foundation for leading big for the kingdom of God.
Weekly Programs
Wednesday Night Youth
Wednesday Night Youth (WNY) meets on Wednesdays from 6:00-8:00 PM in the Youth Suite (F329). WNY is a worship service just for students. We have a youth praise band that leads us in worship, games to build community, youth talk that helps us to grow in our faith, small groups that help us connect our faith to our own lives, and dinner to share a common meal together as a youth group. This program is for all 6th-12th grade students.
RENEW
RENEW meets on Sunday mornings from 9:30-10:45 AM before the 11:00 AM service in the Youth Suite (F329). RENEW is a time of growing our faith through fellowship to nurture community, table discussions to help youth make connections between their faith on Sunday morning and math class on Monday, games to build connections through play, and pop-tarts. This program is for all 6th-12th grade students.
