WHAT WE BELIEVE

We are convicted that students are a living and vibrant part of the body of Christ. We want to make much of Jesus in our student ministry, which means we are committed to serious study of God’s word and what it has to teach us about our savior. Christ bids us to find rest in him, so you will also see our student ministry spend time resting and having fun with one another. We seek to prepare them to serve and grow in the church which is the primary community Christ chose to shape our lives and magnify himself.

Sunday Mornings

God is committed to our worship of him as our great God and King. We believe that commitment extends throughout all age groups in God’s people, so we invite our youth to participate in worship with the entire body. Our hope for our students is that they would grow in their faith in the context of community and engage fully in the life of the church.

Large Group

We are committed to providing intentional, gospel-centered instruction to our youth that emphasizes the overarching story of scripture and how the reality of the gospel means we are looking forward to full and final restoration in Jesus. Our middle and high school students meet together on Sunday evenings to worship and enjoy fellowship with each other.

Small Groups

We want our students to gain a deeper appreciation and knowledge of God’s word. During the week, youth small groups meet regularly on a rotating basis to study the Bible. We occasionally discuss more specific topics such as technology or relationships. These studies are intended to demonstrate how the gospel speaks to every area of life.

Hangouts and Retreats

Scripture shows us that we were meant for relationship. We want to encourage and walk alongside our students as they navigate community and relationships together. Our youth ministry meets regularly for social events to allow students to grow in friendship and fellowship with each other. We also participate in retreats and conferences throughout the year.
