Youth Group
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.

Youth Fall Retreat 2025: Discover The Creator
Romans 1:20 - "For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities...have been clearly seen..."
​
How To Pray For Our Upcoming Retreat
​Our students will be heading to Kentucky from September 19-20 for a powerful weekend of faith, creation, and community as they experience the Ark Encounter and stay at Potter's Ranch. Please join us in prayer as we prepare for this retreat!
-
Pray for hearts to be open - that students encounter God in a real and personal way.
-
Pray for safety and smooth logistics - from travel to lodging to the Ark Encounter visit.
-
Pray for relationships - that students grow closer to one another and to their leaders, building lasting community.
-
Pray for spiritual growth - that this time deepens their understanding of God as Creator (Romans 1:20) and strengthens their faith.
-
Pray for leaders - that they would have wisdom, energy, and joy as they guide students throughout the retreat.
Thank you for covering our students and leaders in prayer as they prepare to discover the Creator!​

We're excited to announce that our Spring Break 2026 International Mission Trip is officially on the calendar! The trip will take place March 27th - April 4th (Friday - Saturday), leading right up to Easter weekend. More details will be announced as they're finalized, but we want families and students to have dates now so you can begin planning and praying about being part of this life-changing opportunity. Contact Pastor Nate with any questions in the meantime.
As the students at Southland head back to school this fall, we ask everyone to lift them up in prayer. Click below to download a copy of the Southland Students Prayer Calendar that features focused prayers for each day for the remainder of 2025.
Snacks = fellowship + full stomachs = happy students! Each week, we provide snacks at Youth Group as a way to encourage connection and community. If you'd like to be part of the team that makes this happen, sign up below through our form. Delaney (student ministry assistant) or Pastor Nate will reach out with more detail.
