As a student ministry, we exists to glorify God in discipling 6th through 12th grade students in the grace and truth of Jesus Christ. Our prayers for every student in our ministry is modeled after Colossians 1:10. That every student walk in a manner pleasing to the Lord in obedience to His commands, show evidence of salvation and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, and grow in knowledge of God’s Word and ways.
Weekly Events
Sunday Morning Youth BFGs
On Sunday mornings our students come together in Bible Fellowship Groups (BFGs) for time of teaching, discussion, and discipleship. Students come together for one large group teaching time and then are split up in age and gender-based groups for discussion and discipleship. The lesson material mirrors the material being presented in many of our adult BFGs. Student BFGs are offered during both morning worship services. Students are encouraged to sit in the worship service with their family and then participate in Youth BFGs the same service hour their parents go to adult BFGs.
Wednesday Night Youth Discipleship
If you want your students to experience intentional discipleship from spiritually mature adults and make deeper friendships with like-minded Christian peers, make it a priority to have them here on Wednesday nights. Our Wednesday Night Discipleship features a time for fellowship, games, worship, large-group teaching, and gender specific, age-graded discipleship groups.
