Important info for parents to know:

What we believe: Please click on this link to see what we believe as a church! Our Beliefs

Why we exist: We exist to provide a ministry that is especially geared towards students. We want to engage them wherever they are no matter their background, social status, or skin color. We want to provide an atmosphere that is inviting and accepting at a time in their life that is filled with so much rejection and pressure. We also strive to provide structure and discipline. Deep down we really believe that teenagers want to know what they can and can not do. We do our best to let them know the biblical guidelines that will help them live freely in their relationship with Christ, but protect them from the tricks and traps of the devil in a world filled with so many temptations. We teach and preach the word of God! God said in Isaiah 55:11 “It [His word] will not return void.” At the end of the day, whether Sunday, Wednesday, or anytime we are together, we want to make sure our students leave knowing that they have had a fresh encounter with our resurrected Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

We would love a chance to meet you and your students and help you in anyway we can!!! God bless you and we hope to see you real soon!!!

What we do: There are many events and activities that we do over the course of the year. Here are some we have done in the past:  S.N.A.C.s (Sunday Night After Church), Open Gym, Gladiator Ball, Volleyball, Student Camps, Mission Projects, Disciple Nows, Theme nights, Camp outs, Back to School Bashes, Movie Nights etc.

Opportunities to get involved:

Praise Band – We have some talented musicians who lead us in worship on Wednesday nights during our service! If you play an instrument or can sing we would love plug you into our praise band!

Sunday School – Middle School meets at 9am and High School meets at 10:30am. The students will gather in the youth suite upstairs at the appropriate time for a few announcements, then break up into small age groups. This would be a great way for your student to meet some more students their age and gain a better understanding of God’s word!

Youth Choir – TBA

Wednesday night student worship service/ College Bible study – 6:30pm every Wednesday night! See above schedule for details!

Summer Mission Projects – Every Thursday during the summer from 9am-4pm we will be meeting behind the church to “Go” and reach out to our community! Hope that you will join us! Mission Projects include: working with senior adults, assisting various ministries within the CSRA, yard maintenance, assisting the homeless, etc. We typically return to the church around 1:30pm and then stay til’ 4pm playing games, etc. See our Mission Page for more info!!!

Student Camp – Exciting news coming for Student Youth Camp Summer 2024!

S.N.A.C. – Sunday Night After Church is a once a month activity that we do after the P.M. worship service. They will typically consist of a devotion, food, and some type of organized activity or game! Typically cost will range from $2-$10 per student and during the school year they last from 7pm-9pm and during the summer 7pm-10pm.

Disciple Now Weekend – Historically these have been powerful weekends that feature worship, mission projects, preaching/ teaching/ bible study, staying in host homes, and a whole lot more! These weekends are open to any 6th-12th grade student and typically our college students help lead these weekends!

Back to School Bash – This is one of our greatest events throughout the year and it has been something God has blessed! We have many participants from area high schools and middle schools and we would love to get your school/ team/ club involved if they are not already!

Bridge The Gap – This is one a once a quarter parent/student worship service!
