Student Worship Live provides an opportunity for students to come into the presence of God in the context of the church, and use their God-given talents and gifts, for the glory of God and the good of others. The service is student-led, with the exception of the preaching, which is done by our Student Minister. Each week our students lead in music, share testimonies about what God is doing in their lives, read Scripture, and operate the sound booth. In doing all of this, they get to understand that worship of God is not limited to just singing a few songs on Sunday morning but it is a way of life for the believer in Christ. And what we do on Sundays, is only one aspect of our worship.

We gather for Christ-centered Bible study, as we seek to become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ. The Gospel Project is a weekly Bible study that helps teens dive deep into the big story of the Bible—God’s plan to rescue His people through His Son, Jesus Christ.
Focus on Jesus. Every session shows how all Scripture leads us to Jesus.
Connect the dots. 3-Year chronological study explores the uniting gospel story and essential truths of Scripture.
Live the story. Show teens that it is Jesus who transforms them, not good behavior.
Ask big questions. Encourage teens to ask tough questions about what Christians believe and expect real answers.

Students engage in age-appropriate Bible study each week, creating an environment of learning and Biblical application. Students are gathered to encourage one another, share insights, and invite healthy discussion.

We are currently going through a six-session series by Francis Chan called, “What is a Christian?” In this study, Francis Chan leads us in an exploration of key concepts common to all Christians through the centuries. No matter what divides us, we are united by these truths about the God we worship and our relationship with him.”

Friday Night Live is a time for students to connect with friends and God, in a safe and fun environment. The evening begins with a meal, followed by games, and a closing lesson from God’s Word. On the First Friday of each month, we normally have a special event or speaker. Other activities include our birthday celebration once a month for those celebrating birthdays during that month and our Family Service Fridays, where families get together to complete service projects.
