Central Youth Ministry (grades 7-12) exists to see students and leaders develop into real-life, lifelong followers of Jesus Christ. We strive to be excellent in relationships and excellent in the way we share our lives! We want to see every student, no matter their background, have the opportunity to experience Jesus' presence and to be enfolded into a community of people who love God and love people.

Youth Group runs on Friday nights during the school year from 7-9pm with a variety of events including mall hunts, dodgeball tournaments, retreat weekends, worship nights, small groups, and more.

Echelon runs each Wednesday from 7-9pm during the school year. It is open to all grades but geared towards high school students. The year is split into three sections each covering a different book of the Bible, and we ask students to commit to being there every week for the sections they participate in.

Our mission trip to Tijuana, Mexico takes places every two years. These are incredible experiences where students get the opportunity to be the practical hands and feet of Jesus to a world that so desperately needs his love and acceptance.

We’d be excited to hear from you if you'd like to get more information or get involved!

Prayer Week 2025
Jan 12
Prayer Week 2025

Each January, we dedicate a week to intentionally clearing our schedules—both as a church and in our households—to focus on prayer. Through nightly gatherings, we come together to share our hearts with Jesus and listen for what He wants to say to us.

We invite you to join in three meaningful ways:

  • Experiment with new rhythms: Explore spiritual practices to make new room for God’s presence and power as you step into the new year.

  • Clear your calendar for Prayer Week: Plan to fully engage in nightly gatherings and prayer events (January 13-17) with our church community.

  • Share what you’re hearing: Listen for what Jesus is speaking to you and to our church, and share these insights with our leadership throughout the month.

For more information including a schedule for the week, please CLICK HERE.
