Growing together.
Whoever you are, wherever you're from, you are welcome here.
Our Student Ministry is made up of students grade 6th through 12th. We seek to nurture the growth of young disciples in our church and our community. The core of the Youth Ministry is built around our weekly Sunday School, Wednesday night "Prime Time" Bible Studies, and a never ending stream of special events. We also place a very high emphasis on student leadership.

January 24th - 26th in Pigeon Forge, TN
Join the Youth Ministry for Resurrection 2025, a powerful weekend retreat designed for youth and their mentors, taking place January 24th - 26th at the LeConte Center in Pigeon Forge, TN! This year’s theme is "Simply Jesus," focusing on Acts 4:12, which reminds us that salvation is found in no one else but Jesus.
Worship will be led by FRVR FREE, returning for the third year. Their mission is to break the chains of shame and lift people into the freedom found in Christ. This team creates worship experiences that reveal God’s love and purpose for us.
The speakers for the weekend include Tega Taylor and Adam Kersh, who will share their personal journeys of faith and how Jesus transformed their lives. You’ll be inspired to live in the freedom Christ offers!
Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with others, grow spiritually, and encounter the life-changing power of Jesus Christ. Experience the love, grace, and freedom that only Jesus can provide!

Free Meals Campaign
Each year we ask families of the church to donate money towards our Sunday & Wednesday meals. This is a lot easier than asking parents to sign up to bring breakfasts and dinners and it is cheaper as well.
If 36 of our youth's families donate $150 then we will have enough money to pay for ALL of our meals for the entire school year. Give the full amount or give part of the amount monthly or in whatever way you would like. Some choose to give $50 per month for 3 months or $25 a month for six months. Any amount is helpful. We currently need donations for our kickoff to fall!
To give, you can click the link below or simply write a check, write "Free Meals Campaign" or "Youth Meals" in the memo line and drop it in the offering plate on Sunday or send it with your child on Wednesday night.
