High School Ministry

Your People Are Here

Sunday nights are for you. A place to belong, be real, and grow alongside others who are figuring out faith and life together.

Why High School Ministry

Faith That’s Actually Yours

High school is when faith stops being something you inherited and starts becoming something you own—or walk away from.

We get it. You’ve got questions. Maybe you’re not sure what you believe anymore. Maybe church feels irrelevant to your actual life. Maybe you just want to be around people who won’t judge you for being honest.

That’s exactly why High School Ministry exists.

This isn’t about having all the answers or pretending everything’s fine. It’s about finding a community of people who are on the same journey—figuring out what it means to follow Jesus when life gets complicated, when faith feels hard, and when the world keeps throwing new challenges your way.

You don’t have to have it all together. You just have to show up.

What Happens

A Typical Sunday Night

Two hours. No boring lectures. Just real community with people your age.

Hang Out

Doors open at 5. Catch up with friends and play some games. This is your time to just be yourself and connect with others.

Fun & Games

We don’t take ourselves too seriously. Expect competitions, challenges, and the kind of ridiculous fun that makes Sunday nights the highlight of your week.

Real Talk

We dig into Scripture and topics that actually matter to your life. Faith, doubt, relationships, purpose, identity—nothing’s off limits. Questions are encouraged.

Food

Obviously. You can’t have a good hang without dinner. We’ve got you covered.

For Parents

Safety & Security

We take your student’s safety seriously. Here’s what you can expect:

Secure Check-In

Every student checks in when they arrive into our Planning Center Check-In system. High school students will check themselves out at 7pm.

Background-Checked Leaders

All of our adult volunteers have passed thorough background checks. We maintain a safe ratio of adults to students at all times.

Parent Communication

We’ll contact you immediately if there’s ever an issue. You’re trusting us with your teenager—we don’t take that lightly.

Quarterly Fun Event

Our volunteers love to throw a quarterly fun event for the High School Youth so please keep an eye on the events page so you know when the next one is coming up! This is a great opportunity for students to invite a friend and for our leaders to build deeper friendships with the students in a fun and engaging way.

Your Move

See You Sunday?

You don’t need to sign up or do anything special. Just show up at 5 PM this Sunday. We’ll handle the rest.

Sunday, Upstairs at the Kids Ministry Building 5:00 – 7:00 PM
