Sunday Night
Sundays | 5:30 - 7:30 PM
All students grades 6th - 12th are invited to join us in the Youth Worship Center each Sunday evening. Before the lesson begins at 6:00 PM, we're usually hanging out, playing games and eating. Pastor Nate and his team share God's word in a relatable way to teens so that they may see the relevancy of scripture in their lives.
