Student Ministry

Who We Are

Our Student Ministry exists to help students Encounter Jesus, Establish them in a relationship with Him, and Equip them to make Him famous wherever they go. We do this through intentional Bible study and programming throughout the week. If you are a middle or high school student, we would love for you to be a part of what God is doing here!
