Our weekly gathering is a mix of high-energy games, food, worship, and relevant lessons. We want to provide a safe space where teens are known, valued, and accepted for who God has created them to be.  In doing that we focus on growing in faith, understanding the gospel, and connecting scripture to daily life.

• 7:00PM - Youth Group (Games, Worship, & Teaching)
• 8:00PM - Fellowship Time (Open Gym, Crafts, Games)
• 9:00PM - Building Closes
