STUDENTS

WHY > WHAT

Mission: Showing students how to LOVE GOD FULLY and LOVE PEOPLE COMPLETELY

As a student ministry made up of 16 mentors, we care more about the why than the what.
Although what we offer students is exciting (who doesn’t love dodgeball?), the why of what we do is more important. Each student will be shown God’s love fully while being challenged to love people completely.

In order to accomplish this our aim is to do 3 things with excellence:

COMMUNITY. BIBLE. MISSION.

If you want your student(s) to experience the WHY, join us on Sunday nights!

STUDENT MISSIONS
