Youth
Our middle and high school program is focused to enable students to experience Jesus’ love, to know who He is and what it means to live for Him. Through weekly corporate worship and learning, retreats and conferences, and opportunities to put their faith to work through mission trips, students are equipped to become mature followers of Jesus.
