Our youth ministry exists to help students know, love, and follow Jesus. Everything we do is shaped by five foundational pillars:
1. Gospel Centrality
Everything begins and ends with Jesus. We are committed to keeping the gospel
at the center focusing on Christ’s finished work rather than promoting good behavior
or moral performance. It’s easy for youth ministry to drift into moralism, but true
transformation comes from the grace of Jesus, not self-effort.
2. Theological Depth Through Biblical Teaching
We are committed to teaching Scripture faithfully and clearly. Our authority is not rooted
in cultural trends or personal opinions, but in God’s Word. We want our students to understand
what they believe, why they believe it, and how to anchor their lives in biblical truth.
3. Relational Discipleship
Discipleship happens in the context of real relationships. Jesus calls us to make disciples,
and that requires knowing, loving, and walking alongside students personally.
We prioritize meaningful connections where students are known, encouraged,
and challenged in their faith.
4. Parent Partnership
Parents are the primary disciplers of their children. Our role is not to replace that
responsibility but to support and strengthen it. We partner with families by equipping,
encouraging, and coming alongside parents as they shepherd their students.
5. Intergenerational Integration
We believe students are not just the future of the church they are part of the church
right now. Our heart is to integrate youth into the broader church family. Jesus calls us
into a diverse body not only across ethnicity and background, but across generations.
We are one family growing together in Christ.
When We Meet
We gather every Thursday night from 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM at our church building. Youth grades 6th–12th are welcome.
During discussion time, Junior High and Senior High break out separately to create space for more age-appropriate conversations and application.
If you have any questions or would like to see what our students will be walking through this year, feel free to reach out to:
