New Beginnings In Student Ministries

Student Ministries has had an exciting Fall kickoff! Our Junior High Ministry (TNT) provides a space for students to grow in faith, friendships, and fun through games as well as large and small group discussions. Each week, 50 students come together to learn how the Bible is one story. Confirmation is guiding 24 students as they take ownership of their faith, wrestle with their questions and doubts, and explore their identity, purpose, and belonging. Meanwhile, the High School Ministry is offering meaningful opportunities for older students to connect and grow. Led by Jen Bradbury and Mike Henry, these ministries help students connect with God, each other, as well as committed adult and student leaders.
