Middle School
Inviting the Next Generation to Take Their Next Steps with Jesus
About Middle School Ministry
Our mission is to invite the next generation to take their next steps with Jesus. We believe that every Middle Schooler has a next step to take, whether it's putting their faith in Jesus, learning how to read their Bible, choosing to be baptized, joining a Life Group, or even just being willing to show up to church. We want to help each student discover what their next step is, and take it, while having tons of fun!

Join us for an opportunity to dig deeper into your faith and into the gospel story. We will meet one Sunday a month to intentionally unpack deep biblical truths. This school year, we will be learning about God’s pursuit of man in the midst of corruption by looking at the complete story of the Old Testament from Genesis all the way to Malachi.
