Regular Programs
Senior High Sunday School Class: This class is offered every Sunday from 10:00-10:45. Come and learn about a variety of subjects ranging from Science and the Bible to studies into relevant issues for a teenager in high school.
Life-Together Groups: Our small groups are a vital portion of our Sr. Youth Ministry. The goal isn’t to build a group, but a community of people who can share life with each other and grow deeper in their relationship with Jesus in the process. Our small groups will usually meet during the fall and spring quarters when Wednesday night classes are offered. Groups meet at 6:45 p.m. in a house hosted by families close in proximity to the church. This is for the teenage Christian excited about deepening their relationship with Christ!
Unique Programs
Impact: This 2 day/one night convention is offered the Friday and Saturday before Thanksgiving each year. The convention is put on by Student Ministries of Virginia (SMOV) annually. Historically, Impact has brought close to 1,000 students from across the state together for an awesome time to encounter Christ. At the convention you can expect to find loud worship, down to earth teaching, and a high level of entertainment (bands, comedians, drama groups, etc…). Impact has brought famous speakers such as Mark Moore, frontline bands like Audio Adrenaline and Supertones, and talent like CPR in the past. You can check out www.smov.net for more information on the next convention!
Christ in Youth Summer Conference: Nothing is more high energy and spiritually stirring than CIY. This is a week long event that is put on every summer with over 20 separate weeks on college campuses across the nation. During this week you might have your first personal quiet time with Jesus, worship with deep passion, open the doors to your heart by God through awesome classes and sessions, or maybe even be surprised to have the time of your life without things like drugs or alcohol. Check out www.ciy.com for more information!
Missions/Service Trips: When we encounter Christ, he brings us into a life where He calls the shots. Not as some power hungry dictator, but as a good and loving Father who wants the best for His children. That’s what these trips are about…hearing God. This is a week to get up and go shine the love we have. Sometimes we go on service trips where the goal is to share Christ through serving. The goal other times is to share the love of Christ verbally through street VBS, one on one conversations, etc… We take these trips because learning to be the hands and feet of Jesus is an important part of growing as a Christian.
