We offer programs on both Wednesday and Sunday nights for this age group. Both The River on Sundays, and Deeper on Wednesdays, challenges and encourages students to experience the presence and power of a relationship with God.
Students are challenged, impacted and invited to experience and develop a personal relationship with God through high-energy, authentic worship, hearing from God’s Word, small discussion groups with peers, and one-on-one guidance from caring leaders.
5:00pm
Social Time — hang with friends, canteen open
6:00pm
Worship Service — awesome music, relevant message
7:30pm
Discussion Groups — students of same age/gender talk
Grades 9 - 12 also meet on Wednesday evenings September thru April only. Here students have a chance to grow DEEPER in their ability to study God’s Word as it applies to their lives and what they are going through.

Paul... He lived his life on mission. He was a great leader that multiplied himself and had a faith I want!
But I count my life of no value to myself, so that I may finish my course and the ministry I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of God's grace (Acts 20:24).

I would sleep in, do devotions outside by a still quiet lake, then meet up with friends and do something active, like sports, hiking or boating. After that I would have a bonfire as the sun set, and finish the night with a movie (or watching the Packers win the Super Bowl).
Gideon, I can relate to his doubts about if God can use him, and then to see God do awesome things through him and make a mighty warrior out of him.
The right combination of confidence and humility, with wisdom that comes through reading the Word, and a heart after God that is seen in a dependence on prayer.
Philippians 4:6-7, God used this verse in my life to lead me out of a life that was controlled by anxiety.

Purpose: The purpose of this ministry is to provide our young adults with an opportunity to be “equipped for the work of the ministry.” Ephesians 4:12
Equipping: The following items are areas of development and ministry that will be emphasized.
To Apply:
Mark 10:41-45: “When the other 10 disciples heard this, they began to be indignant with James and John. Jesus called them over and said to them, ‘You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles dominate them, and their men of high positions exercise power over them. But it must not be like that among you. On the contrary, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first among you must be a slave to all. For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life—a ransom for many.’” (HCSB)
