Middle School

Meet us at 10am in the Youth Room each Sunday for Student Connection!

Each Sunday during the school year, all students in grades 6-12 will meet in the Youth Room (1st floor Education Building) for announcements, Scripture reading, worship, before MS splits into grade specific classrooms. Adult leaders will teach and engage the students with God’s Word.

Meet us at 6:30pm in the Middle School Room each Wednesday for Midweek!

Each Wednesday night, all students in grades 6-8 will gather in the Basement (MS Room between doors F & G, beneath the Chapel) for games, worship, teaching, and small groups. Small groups are led by trusted college students & young adult leaders who have a passion for God's Word and for discipleship.

Kingdom Culture Nights

These are monthly gatherings held on the last Monday, designed to create space for middle school students (grades 6-8) to go deeper in their faith through discussion, real-life questions, and intentional discipleship. The goal is to provide intimate discipleship outside the walls of a church—meeting in different homes each month—where students can ask hard questions, explore biblical truth, and learn how to live out their faith daily in a real and personal way. Text "KCN" to (833)265-1218 for more info on this month's meeting!
