Student Ministry

To CONNECT teenagers to Jesus Christ!

To EXPERIENCE changed lives by pursuing Him together!

To RESPOND by loving God and loving others!

We also strive to see our students uphold specific core values:

PATIENCE, HOPE, PEACE, HONESTY, HUMILITY, FAITHFULNESS, JOY,

HONORING, GOODNESS, SELF-CONTROL, KINDNESS, LOVE, ACCEPTING, RESPECT, WELCOMING

Students play a vital role in the life of our church.

In every ministry and function offered, we see students stepping up to serve and take leadership in what goes on around here. Because we know how important they are, we believe very much in preparing them for life by teaching them to stand on the truth of God's Word.

Each week on Wednesday nights, we have an awesome exerperience for Middle School and High School students. Traction looks different each week but always has the same goal, to share Jesus Christ with all who haven't heard, and to challenge those who have heard the full Gospel to respond and with no regrets, fully surrender their lives to Jesus.

For all students in 6th through 12 grade, we meet each Wednesday night from 7-8pm. During the school year, if school is cancelled on a Wednesday then there is no Traction that night. We have small groups for all of our students to be able to grow spiritually, but also to build relationships and have fun. Plus, we always strive to have an exciting summer planned with events for our Middle School and High School students. As each event approaches, we will make sure to do our best and keep everyone updated. We do so by posting on the ROL app and our social media pages (links to those below).

Fill out our yearly (Medical Release/Permission Form) and bring it to Justin. This will make the process a lot easier and smoother for all of the outings we do!
