Discipleship - Our goal is to make disciples who love and follow Jesus Christ. We strive to keep this priority at the forefront of all programming, activities, and events.
- It can be challenging to measure transformation and spiritual growth, but we have three strategies that we believe will help our ministry be sustainable and impact lives:
- Intergenerational: We see and understand the importance of youth knowing and having relationships with individuals of all ages in our congregation, and recognize that our youth bring important gifts and abilities to our community.
- Interconnected: We believe students benefit from being included in the WHOLE life of the church, its culture, and its mission. We long to see our church in mission together as the body of Christ, connected in ministry and in vision.
- Relational: Relationships are at the heart of our youth ministry. Our goal is to create a space where youth grow relationships with one another, with their ministry leaders, and most importantly with God. We believe this happens best through consistent small groups participation.
- Sunday School is designed to guide students in their biblical knowledge and understanding.
High School Sunday School: 9-12th grade in room Y1
Middle School Sunday School 6-8th grade in Youth Main Room
Family Support:
- Nick and Jen want to do all they can to support you as the spiritual leader in your families. Please let us know how we can be a resource for you and know that we pray for you regularly.
- If you can do ONE thing to provide spiritual leadership for your family it's this:
Be in worship together regularly. (We can show you the research that says so.)
