youth staff
Our youth staff works hard to be God's hands and feet to the students and families we connect with. Our desire is that the youth ministry will work alongside parents to aid them in the spiritual development of their teenager. Our church staff wants to help equip and encourage parents during this important time of spiritual development in the lives of our students.
sunday school
Our youth Sunday School program provides students with a chronological study of God's Word. The goal of the Sunday School program is to move students beyond just knowing God's Word to understanding how it applies to their daily life.
digging deeper
On Sunday nights, our youth have a Digging Deeper study that occurs during the Family Discipleship time or our church. This study challenges the students of our church, at a deeper level, in their understanding of their faith and how to live out boldly for Christ.

wednesday night
Wednesday nights, for our youth ministry, tend to be the largest gathering of the week. The Wednesday night program consists of corporate worship, small groups, and fellowship each week. Students are challenged through God's Word to become more Christ-centered in their lives as they grow into adulthood.
student leadership
Our Church has been blessed with students who are very talented and want to use their gifts for God's glory. Youth Praise Band, Student Ensemble, and Student Drama are opportunities for our students to lead in worship. Not only do these programs provide students with outlets for their gifts, they also encourage students to develop leadership skills and to be more thoughtful about the purpose of worship. These practice times usually occur on Sunday afternoons.
youth events
Our youth ministry provides several special focused opportunities for our students to grow closer to Christ throughout the year. Disciple Now, Kick Start, Youth Camp, Youth Evangelism Conference, Associational Leadership Conference, Super Summer, and Mission Trips are all ministry events that provide students with opportunities of growth and service in their lives each year.
mentors
Just as with our church, mentoring is an important part of our student ministry. Mentors provide age and experience, gained through their own spiritual pilgrimage, to students in the mentoring process, supporting the students with a clearer understanding of the student's dreams and plans for their life. Adolescents are at a crucial times in their lives where mentoring is most needed and natural for development.
