Pursuit
Aug 23, 2026
A place where your student is welcomed, known, and challenged to pursue Jesus with people who'll walk with them all week, not just on a ministry night.
What We're All About
Pursue Jesus
We believe life makes the most sense when Jesus is the focus. Our identity, purpose, and future all begin and end with Him. Everything we do—worship, friendship, questions, and growth—starts with keeping Him at the center.
Live Curious
Faith grows when we ask real questions. Doubts aren't dangerous here—they're the starting point for deeper belief. We follow Jesus with open minds, open Bibles, and open hearts, trusting that He meets us in our curiosity.
Purpose in Presence
Showing up matters more than we realize. We grow when we consistently step into community, worship, and moments with Jesus. Our presence isn't random—it's shaping who we're becoming and how God works through us.
Bring Them In
We look for the one who's new, left out, or unsure where they fit, and we make room for them. We invite boldly, welcome widely, and reflect Jesus by including others. If someone's missing, we notice. If someone's searching, we move toward them.
High School Ministry
Grades 9-12
Details
Sundays | 6:00–8:00 PM
Optional “After Hours” Hangout | 8:00–9:00 PM
Starts Sunday, August 23
Our High School Ministry is a place where students in grades 9 through 12 can build authentic friendships, grow in their faith, and discover what it means to follow Jesus in everyday life. Every Sunday night, students gather for a fun, welcoming environment that includes games, worship, prayer, and meaningful conversations centered on God’s Word.
At the heart of our High School Ministry is an interactive teaching experience. Instead of simply listening to a message, students engage Scripture together in groups, discussing the passage, asking honest questions, and discovering God’s truth alongside their peers. Throughout the experience, a teacher provides biblical insight, helps guide the conversation, and offers practical application as students work through the passage together. We believe students do not just need to hear the Bible. They need to learn how to read it, understand it, and confidently apply it to their everyday lives.
Whether you are brand new to church or have grown up in it, there is a place for you here. We would love to have you join us!
Upcoming Dates
Middle School Ministry
Grades 6-8
Details
Wednesdays | 7:00–9:00 PM
Starts Wednesday, August 26
Our Middle School Ministry is a place where students in grades 6 through 8 can build meaningful friendships, grow in their faith, and have a ton of fun along the way. Every Wednesday night, students gather for an exciting environment that includes games, worship, biblical teaching, and conversations that help them take their next step with Jesus.
Each week begins with time to hang out before everyone comes together for a high energy game, worship, and a practical message rooted in God’s Word. After the message, students meet in groups with trusted leaders to unpack what they heard, ask questions, and explore how God’s truth applies to their everyday lives. We believe life change happens not only through biblical teaching, but also through meaningful conversations and relationships.
Whether your student is brand new to church or has grown up in it, they will find a welcoming community where they can belong, be known, and grow in their faith.
