Middle school years are some of the most developmentally important. How students spend their time really matters. Who are they hanging out with, and what voices are they hearing?

It's our goal to meet students where they are. Middle schoolers are capable of receiving God's love and showing it to others. We want to affirm their personal journey by encouraging them to have a faith of their own and mobilize them to keep pursuing an authentic faith.

  • Middle Schoolers meet in the Youth room (downstairs) during the 9:30AM service.

    Encounter week is a four-day long, day trip experience designed to empower students to share God’s love by serving and learning from people in our neighboring communities. Throughout the week, students will have the opportunity to encounter Christ in several areas of our surrounding communities- whether in the lives of those experiencing food or housing insecurity, those facing the challenges of old age, or those navigating limited access to resources. Together, we’ll grow in compassion and begin to see Jesus in the margins, choosing to welcome and love others the way He does! We will also spend time together as a middle school community with additional fun activities throughout the experience! Trip Qualification: Must be an incoming 6th-9th grader.
