What to Expect

Each gathering begins with a light meal, giving students time to connect and unwind. We then move into group time, which includes:

• Highs & Lows: A chance to share life’s ups and downs in a safe and supportive space.
• Discussion & Reflection: Guided by a curriculum that helps us dive into Scripture and connect the Bible with what’s happening in the world and in our lives today. Together we ask questions, wrestle with challenges, and discover how faith shapes our everyday choices.
• Community & Support: Building strong friendships rooted in faith, trust, and encouragement.

Beyond Sunday Nights

Our youth group is more than just biweekly gatherings. Each month we offer outings that include both service projects and fun community-building events. In addition, once a month our high school students take the lead in a congregation-wide service project between worship services, living out their faith through action.

Looking Ahead: Summer Trips
