"Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity."

1 timothy 4:12

Our goal in Student Ministry is to reach and teach Middle and High school students about the Gospel, how it changes their lives, and how to live a life entirely devoted to Jesus. We want to be the example of how Christ-followers should live, as 1 Timothy states, in speech, conduct, love, faith, and purity. Our goal is not to be the Next Generation but the Now Generation, actively serving our Church and living out the Great Commission in our schools, neighborhoods, city, nation, and world.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Sunday mornings at our McPherson Campus, Village Students gather at 9:30 AM in the Fellowship Hall.  With a fun ice breaker, teaching in large groups, and small group discussion, students will be challenged to go deeper in their walk with Christ, to develop friendships that point to Jesus, and to dig into the Word of God.

Our groups are currently split up into Middle School Girls, High School Girls, Middle School Boys & High School Boys!
