Outside, students can hang out or play basketball under the huge, open-air, covered pavilion. The grounds around and in back of the building provide plenty of room for running around or organized games of football, baseball, and volleyball. Skaters also find the set-up here perfect for doing the things they do on their boards. Whatever students are into, they can find it here.

The youth building might be great, but we can never compete with the world when it comes to entertainment value. What we do give that the world can't is unconditional love, acceptance, and a safe environment where students can be themselves and know they matter.

The Jr. High ministry consists of students grades 6, 7, & 8, and is led by Riley Higgins, along with a team of adult volunteers who love this group of kids. They invest in the lives of these students and teach them the truth of God's Word in a way Jr. High-ers can understand.

The High School is for students in grades 9 - 12, and is led by Jason Harris, along with his team of adults. They have a huge heart for teenagers, and desire to show students what it means to be followers of Christ.

Wednesday nights are the main services for the youth ministry. That's where you'll find the majority of the students who come here. Sunday nights are our small group Bible studies. Sunday nights are all about going deeper. We break the larger group down into smaller groups where students can open up and share about things on a deeper level. This is where we develop deeper relationships and get deeper into the Word of God.

In addition to our two weekly services, we do lots of other things as well, such as concerts, retreats, movie nights, 5th Quarters, road trips, paint-ball, etc.
