Belonging
We are committed to creating an environment where every student feels valued and accepted. No matter their background, their doubts, or where they are on their faith journey, they have a place here. This is a space to find community, support, and friends who share the same values and passions.
Believing
We want to help students discover and deepen their personal faith in Jesus Christ. It's not just about knowledge; it's about a relationship with Him. We encourage our students to explore their faith, ask tough questions, and seek the truth with open hearts.
Becoming
We believe every student is on a path of becoming the person God created them to be. Through challenges, service, leadership opportunities, and personal growth, students are empowered to step into their purpose. We encourage them to take risks, lead with integrity, and strive to make a difference in the world around them.

Grow/Serve
- Our youth ministry provides a God Centered model for spiritual transformation, guiding students to deepen their connection with God, build strong relationships with one another, and engage in personal reflection. We walk alongside each student, helping them discover their unique role in their faith journey and encourage them to grow spiritually.
- Throughout the year, our youth participate in mission trips, retreats, and choir tours that allow them to use their talents and time in service to others. These experiences not only enrich their spiritual lives but also provide opportunities to make a tangible difference in the lives of others. Additionally, our youth regularly serve in the Children's Ministry during seasonal events and Vacation Bible School (VBS), continuing the cycle of mentorship and service.
- We encourage our youth to explore service areas that align with their passions. Many of our students have even started their own ministries, both within the church and in the larger community, exemplifying leadership compassion, and a commitment to making a difference.
