Weekly Activities (6th-12th Grade)
Student Life Bible Study
Sunday Mornings, 11:00 AM
Student Life Bible Study exists to help students develop a passion for the Word of God. Our study for this year, Character: Old Testament People, reveals how the people of the Old Testament encountered God in amazing ways and their lives were drastically changed forever.
Restored Student Worship
Sunday Nights, 6:00 - 7:15 PM
Each Sunday night, our students meet together for a time of corporate worship and biblical teaching. Starting in September, worship will be led by our very own students, followed by a lesson from the Gospel of John. It is our goal to create an atmosphere where students can truly interact with the presence of God.
LifeGroups
Wednesday Nights, 6:30 - 7:30 PM
LifeGroups allow our students the opportunity to walk in honest community with each other and pursue a deeper relationship with Jesus. This year, we will offer several studies, including Vintage Jesus and Doctrine: What Christians Should Believe, while also providing opportunities for service within the local community.
