Elementary

In our Elementary ministry (1st–5th grade), we work to continue building up a strong, gospel-centered foundation for our children. We do this by teaching our kids about the nature and character of God—that He is wise, generous, loving and good. Our hope is to partner with parents in the discipleship of their children by creating environments, curriculum and resources that center on the gospel of Jesus Christ. On the weekends, in Kids Village, we worship through song, tell stories from the Bible and gather in small groups by age to talk about Scripture together.

Our volunteers are required to be trained and screened, and we maintain strict teacher-to-child ratios to ensure safe care. For health standards, children must be free from fever or symptoms of contagious disease for 24 hours. Let us know of any allergies or medical conditions your child may have.

Child Baptism

We treat the baptism of children with special care and have created a class to help parents of 1st–5th graders walk through the process with their children. The class lasts three weeks, and you must attend all three classes. If your child expresses interest in baptism, please follow these steps:

• Register for and complete the Family Baptism Class.
• Schedule an interview with the Elementary ministry staff.
• Schedule the baptism.

Middle School

In our Middle School Ministry (6th–8th grade), we seek to increase that strong, gospel-centered foundation in our students through learning and studying the Word of God and living out biblical community in small groups. Middle School is where our students begin to experience what group life is like within the church. Our hope is to partner with parents in helping students go deeper with each other, their leaders and, most importantly, God. This ministry looks a little different at each campus, but what we seek to accomplish is the same.

Baptism

We treat the baptism of children with special care and want to help parents walk through the process with their children. If your middle schooler expresses interest in baptism, set up an interview with our staff so we can help you determine next steps.

High School

In our High School Ministry (9th–12th grade), we seek to come alongside parents to keep building gospel maturity in our students and help them grow in gospel-centered community, the context for discipleship. We want our students to form deeper relationships with each other, their leaders and, most importantly, the Lord. On a weekly basis, our students meet in small groups that are broken up by age and gender and, sometimes, location to learn and study God’s Word and to foster biblical community at a young age. It looks a little different at each campus, but what we seek to accomplish is the same.

Home Groups

We pursue and live out gospel-centered community through Home Groups. Made up of men and women from all generations of life, these groups meet throughout the week for fellowship, care, prayer, accountability, sharing stories and studying God’s Word. They’re a place where we work to consider each other over ourselves. No group is perfect, and no two groups are exactly the same. We don’t expect them to be. Because people are messy, groups are messy.

GroupConnect

Throughout the year, we host an event at each campus called GroupConnect. This event looks a little different from campus to campus, but across the board, the hope is the same: to connect you into a Home Group where you can find a place to live out gospel-centered community. GroupConnect gives you the opportunity to meet different Home Group leaders and to sign up for a Home Group in your area.

Recovery Groups

We pursue and live out gospel-centered community through Recovery Groups. These groups give men and women a safe place to pursue redemption in Christ from sin and suffering. We meet for two hours every week at each campus. The first hour includes worship through song and a biblically based lesson or testimony. The second hour includes small groups that address specific issues and struggles.

The issues addressed in these groups fall into three broad categories: suffering primarily as a result of a person's sin (ex. addictions), suffering primarily as a result of a person being sinned against (ex. abuse) and suffering primarily as a result of a person living in a fallen world (ex. infertility).
