Connection. Friendship.  Growth. Belonging. Faith-filled. Courageous. Servants.  This is a taste of who we are and who we long to be.  We aim to provide an accepting, entertaining and safe environment where middle and high school students can search out what it means to be a community of young people following Jesus. We present faith in a way that is relevant to everyday life.  We’ve just added full time staff to our youth department, so additional ministries are planned in the near future!  For right now, join us for one of the following opportunities:

Youth Sunday School Class: Sundays, 9:00 AM in the third floor youth room.  Led by Pastor Nathan Nash.  Youth is for teens entering 6th grade through 12th grade.  All teens will be together for activities in teh beginning and then will likely split into middle school and high school groups for the lesson and discussion.

Midweek Youth Group: Wednesdays, 6:30 Pm in the third floor youth room.  Youth is for teens entering 6th grade through 12th grade.  Junior High meets from 6:30 PM - 7:30 PM and Senior High meets from 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM.

Special Events and Trips: We’ve enjoyed special events like Wii parties, bonfires, trips to Valleyfair, sardines and LifeLight.  Events in the works include paintball, bowling, game nights, movie nights, all-nighters and about anything else that involves fun with rowdy teens.  You’ll also find us traveling to camps, conferences and on mission trips.

Image Gallery: We’ve posted some fun pictures to give you and idea of some of the things we do as a group.  To check out the pictures, click here.
