We challenge students to live their faith so that Jesus' hope and the heartbeat becomes evident in every area of their life. In the High School Ministry, we teach students how to practically live out their faith in a way that reflects Jesus and His love for all people. We believe that God is looking for partners to join in His redemption of all of Creation. Our teachings are focused on developing young men and women who find their identity in Jesus, are empowered through the Holy Spirit and are passionate about making an impact in our world.

Small Groups

Small Groups are the heart of the High School Ministry and consist of 8–10 students of the same gender and two Leaders. Small groups create a safe place for students to discuss questions about God while encouraging each other in their daily walks with Jesus. To allow for the rapid growth Youth Ministries is experiencing, when groups reach 10 students, sub-groups will be formed for small group discussion time. In this way, students can enjoy being part of their larger group but continue to invite friends and have more opportunities for meaningful small group discussions.

Impact Trips

We have 2021 Impact Trips coming. Sign-ups begin on November 19. These trips are an incredible way for students to grow in their faith in Jesus by living out their faith amongst a group of peers, leaders and people they meet along the way. 

Click HERE for more info on the trips - and then email a specific trip leader (information on sheet above) if you want more detailed information.

Retreats

For students grades 7-12, retreats are often pivotal opportunities that move young people towards embracing and living their faith. When you register for the High School Ministry, the registration for an annual retreat is included. Retreats are a highlight for students and a unique opportunity to unplug from their everyday routine. Retreats help build small group relationships to foster more meaningful discussions on regular programming nights.

Retreat registrations will be available online in the fall of 2020.

Student Leadership

We are passionate about providing our students with discipleship opportunities where they can come alongside younger students while growing in their own leadership ability and spiritual lives. We invite students in grades 9–12 to serve as Student Leaders in middle school small groups.
