Our weekly schedule:

Grow Groups:

Sunday mornings, 9:45 a.m.

Grow Groups happen every Sunday morning where students are split into small groups by grade. Here we have a wonderful time of fellowship and discipleship. This is where we feel that strong relationships are built within each grade, and your student will have wonderful teachers who will invest in them not only on Sunday, but also throughout the week.

Midweek:

Wednesday nights, 6:00 p.m.

MidWeek is our “Big Event” during the week. Midweek will have a time of worship led by our incredible student band. Teaching times are high energy. Andrew and Dannie will develop talks to encourage, equip, motivate, and inspire your student to do great things for the name of Jesus. We love Wednesday nights. We put a great deal of time and energy in planning a fun, exciting, and engaging service for our students. We also serve a meal beforehand every week at 5:30 in the youth room.

Guys and Girls Bible Study:

Sunday nights, 6 p.m.

Sunday nights are a time of discipleship and bible study. We will be split between guys and girls and Andrew will be leading the guys and Dannie will be leading the girls. This will be a time where we will go deeper in the Word and will be an even more intentional time of discipleship that goes beyond what we do on Sunday mornings in Grow Groups.
