Youth Church is a youth-contextualized worship experience where youth lead each other (alongside adults) to worship Jesus. We have musical worship teams led by youth, youth who share their stories, sharing in groups, responses, and prayer. Each Sunday, we have Jesus-centered and youth-specific teaching that encourages us to grow deeper in friendship with God, love for our neighbors, and action in our world. We also have a lot of fun and friendship.
On the first of every month, our church works together to create an intentionally multigenerational Sanctuary service for youth and adults. Here, our youth get a picture of what it looks like to be part of our larger church. Youth get to learn and serve alongside adults on our hospitality team, worship team, kids ministry, and in other areas of these multigenerational services.
Check-in to church
Your family's safety is our top priority, so we check in every Youth Church attendee to our digital check-in system, Church Center. Either follow the steps below to pre-check into church, or check in when you arrive at the iPad station.
Checking in is quick and easy! Simply approach an iPad, type in the last four digits of your phone number, select the youth who will join in Youth Church today, and click finish.
By using the pre-check feature in the Church Center app, you can check in your kids and youth from anywhere and the app will give you a QR code. When you arrive, approach an iPad, scan the QR code, and that's it!
Our Groups are all about being with God, building spiritual friendships, and loving our neighbors as ourselves.
Middle School
Wednesdays, 7-8:30pm
At Middle School Group, we encourage youth ages 6th-8th grade to be built up as followers of Jesus. We create opportunities for spiritual friendship through fun activities. We worship God and learn how to follow Jesus together. We share food, share life stories, reflect on Scripture, and pray for each other in small groups.
High School
Wednesdays, 7-8:30pm
At High School Group, we invite youth aged 9th-12th grade to join Jesus on his mission of loving our neighbors as ourselves. High Schoolers worship God together, learn from Scripture what the message of God means for their world today, and spend time in groups to share, reflect, and pray for each other.
There are various Bible Studies and groups that meet throughout the week as well. Contact
Drew Fajen, Pastor of Youth & Their Families, for more information.
We hope for all our youth to have mentors they can rely on, confide in, trust, and follow Jesus with. Our mentors provide opportunities for our youth to meet one-on-one in our café or in smaller groups for deeper discipleship. Please reach out to the Pastor of Youth & Their Families to get connected with your youth's Youth Mentor.
