Weekly Gatherings

Our weekly gatherings provide students with consistent opportunities to connect with God and each other. On Wednesday evenings, youth come together for classes designed to challenge and inspire them in their walk with Christ. Sunday mornings offer age-appropriate teaching that grounds students in biblical truth, while our special Third Sunday Night services give them an extended time of worship, fellowship, and community building. Each gathering is a chance for our youth to grow spiritually while building lifelong friendships.

Faith in Action

Beyond our regular schedule, our Student Ministry thrives through special events and activities that bring our young people closer together. From youth rallies and retreats to community outreach and service projects, our students are encouraged to put their faith into action. These moments outside the classroom help create powerful memories and deepen the bonds within our group.

At the heart of everything we do is discipleship. We want our youth to leave not only with knowledge of God’s Word but also with the tools and confidence to live it out in everyday life. By creating a safe and welcoming environment where students can ask questions, build relationships, and be mentored by caring leaders, we are investing in a generation that will carry the light of Christ into every area of their lives.

We invite every middle and high school student to join us as we continue to grow together in faith, friendship, and purpose. Whether it’s through weekly classes, Sunday worship, or exciting special events, there’s a place here for every young person to belong, to be discipled, and to discover the calling God has for their life.

Coming from a strong heritage of Church of God ministers, Justin has a sincere passion for leading the next generation to experience the life-changing power of Jesus Christ. He has previously served as a Youth Pastor in Arkansas, where he poured his heart into helping students grow in faith, leadership, and their identity in Christ.
