Our Process:
Our programs are designed to seek out students who are missing, give those who are seeking Christ opportunities to encounter Him and belong to our community, help students who are following Christ to grow and serve and provide those students who feel called to lead the opportunity to develop their gifts. Our process provides programs to help students on each phase of their journey make it to the next.
A quick word about each student type:
A quick word about each student type:
|
Missing
Missing students are those that are unattached to a church or youth program. They may be missing from the Kingdom altogether but they are certainly missing in action. To attract these students we have a monthly U-Nite service as well as numerous fun activities throughout the year. |
|
Seeking
These are students that are connected to our church or youth program but are still exploring whether to take their faith seriously. To help these students become more connected to our group and to Christ we have Sunday School and Youth Group. |
|
Following Students in our ministry who are following Christ. Or at least trying. To help these students deepen their commitment as hearers and doers of the word, we provide our Ministry Team and Cafe Logos. |
|
Leading
These are students who feel called to lead other students in following Christ. To develop these students into Christian leaders we provide our Youth Leadership Team. |
