7th – 12th grade students meet weekly to engage with other teenagers and adult volunteers who can encourage them in their faith. We work to create a supportive space for students to interact as they share a meal together and have some fun through games, activities and conversation. We always follow up with some time for worship and bible study that focuses on ways that students can apply scripture in their daily lives with families, friendships, school and community. It can be tough for teenagers to find safe environments that challenge them to deepen their relationship with Jesus, so we hope to build a culture that models Christlike interactions and encourages students to take steps in their faith journey.
